So he didn’t actually answer the question he was asked. Typical politician.

[J_Bone]

Let me shed a little light on this…doesn’t answer the question. I hate this man with a passion

[barracudal]

100% corruption and corrupt.... lier .... corrupt why he is not being prosecuted... a barrister that pretend to not knowing yhe law

[katherinekehoe]

Still didn’t answer the question why is another man buying your wife clothes and why didn’t you tell us?

[wiseget]

Starmer is the name, Sleaze is his game!

[pooweetiger]

Dont do as i do… do as your told general public

[syruejhro]

A Lesson in how not to answer a question

[traceymcgowan]

Government dont see dont hear dont care.

[lumpygravy]

As soon as these despotic liars aquire power, they seem to be untouchable.

[grayboy]

If u want to earn a little extra by selling stuff on e-bay, Etsy, vinted etc, these platforms are obligated to inform the tax man if you make I think somewhere around £2500
Yet gifts are not earning ? Saved them thousands not having to to buy their own.
How many married men would be happy
with another man buying cloths for his wife/partner??
Does sound like people are being bought.
If it’s all true it’s insulting to the British people struggling day to day.
I think someone twisting the truth.

Lie after lie after lie, don't believe a word this man says.

[UKsoldier]

Is it me? but I don’t believe a word of it! £76000 could provide 152 pensioners with their winter fuel payment! Utter hypocrite!

[blackshuck]

"Its very important to me!" Liar!!

[markaldridge]

Was expecting him blame it all on the "22 billon black hole™ "

[niknoks]

Liar Liar his wife’s new clothes are on fire! 🤣

[adrianbennett]

It would be nice if he concentrated on stopping the boats rather than kitting himself and wife out in new clothes

[csharpe]

Hiding behind the rules, it isn’t just about rules.It’s about what should ethically happen. Why would somebody give you clothes if they weren’t trying to influence?

[Jamesyahyah]

Slimey is the biggest lying barsteward makes boris look like a saint plus he is a traitor

[giles]

What a load of old s**t. He knew the rules, he decided to break them

[garythornton]

He only declared it because he was caught out!
