blue phil Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 A deputy prime minister spending £4000 on food over a year is not excessive. It is when it's the tax payer's money . If the fat ba$tardo wants to spend money at McDonalds let it be his own .

colin Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 It is when it's the tax payer's money . Was it though? Is there anything to show that he claimed food on expenses? And if he did claim food on expenses then at least he was ill while he did it. I'm no great fan of John Prescott, but that Daily Sport headline is an insult to anyone who has ever been ill or disabled. It's a shame Bunkett isn't around so they could have a go at him for being blind.
Silencio Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 (edited) But seriously, why is that in any way relevant? Seriously, why are you bothered? Prescott's got Bulimia and has a penis the size of a cocktail sausage. Both of these things are funny... Edited April 23, 2008 by bish1982
thenodrog Posted April 24, 2008 Author Posted April 24, 2008 And if he did claim food on expenses then at least he was ill while he did it. No Colin that would have been too messy even for him. He was only 'ill' in the toilest afterwards.
thenodrog Posted April 24, 2008 Author Posted April 24, 2008 It appears the ever increasing number of takeaway establishments are being blamed for attracting rats. http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/mostp...rats_plague.php So...... Can anybody spot the connection with the person in 8th place in this list.......? http://www.rednews.co.uk/forum/archive/ind...hp?t-17908.html
Billy Castell Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 I have sympathy for Prescott if he does/did have bulimia. Eating disorders are bad things to have, and people who have them need to be helped, not spat on. Then again, this is the brown and unpleasant land that creates people who would rather see someone suffer than try to help.
blue phil Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Was it though? Is there anything to show that he claimed food on expenses? And if he did claim food on expenses then at least he was ill while he did it. Under Freedom of Information rules it was revealed that Prescott spent £4000 in a year of taxpayers' money on food . I suspect you might just be in the minority , Col , if you believe his "illness" can be used as a mitigating factor to justify this extraordinary claim on the public purse . Maybe the fat , useless waster would have been better off booking himself into the Priory for a while (at public expense of course) and sorting his undoubted mental problems out .

Fair point, but all government ministers will claim an entertainment allowance for buffets & hospitality for visiting guests, be they foreign government officials or perhaps local government representatives. I think you'll need to nail down which part of the £4k he spent on food that he specifically bought for his own use and then pewked up down the bog if you want to take this further. "extraordinary claim on the public purse" Is it £50 billion that was used to rescue Northern Rock?
Napoleon Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 Someone should tell him there's a difference between bulimia, and just eating until you're sick.
Eddie Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 4k doesn't seem like very much to me actually, I would have expected more.
thenodrog Posted April 25, 2008 Author Posted April 25, 2008 4k doesn't seem like very much to me actually, I would have expected more. According t't'internet Big Mac double cheesburger on MacD's 'poundstretcher' menu is £1.19p. So thats 9 per day / every day that he could have had at our expense eddie. Exactly how many more do you expect he could consume without bursting?
