So, the Labour Gravy Train rolls on. Take a gander at the graph below issued by the British Electoral Commission. Doth it not tell a shocking tale of freebie debauchery, Possums? Allow me to elaborate.

This graphic illustration details some of Lord Waheed Alli’s largesse to some key players in the Labour party since 2004. Makes for interesting viewing, does it not?

This caught my eye on Sunday whilst taking a leisurely looksee at the newspapers. Generally speaking, Sunday offerings are accompanied by voluminous amounts of stuff. The newsworthy “meat” is normally found in the main body amongst the various sections.

Now, to any radical vegan who finds this particular reference “offensive” I would simply invite you to get over it. Don’t worry, you’ll feel better soon.

What an enormous kerfuffle there seems to be over the doings of one Lord Waheed Alli at the moment? Well, he does seem to have been a busy chappie, doesn’t he? Hand frequently in his pocket dishing out plenty of readies to the Labour movers and shakers over the years.

As things stand only a stomach-churning sense of revulsion can be expressed in response the reprehensible amount of outright sleaze and nepotism that Keir Starmer has overseen. One has to question the motivation and impact of Lord Alli’s largesse.

If someone expends such large amounts of money over a relatively short period of time, then it’s hard to imagine they don’t seek something in return. Consequently, one must then ask, what does he want?

It is generally acknowledged that the Labour life peer is very much central to funding drives for his beloved Labour Party. Since 2022, he is reported to have been essential to that effort, taking an unpaid role as chair of “general election fundraising” for the recent campaign.

Supporting this contention, it has been reported that “His” team met up to four times a week at his London penthouse during the campaign.

“The secret of his success in television was that he could make A-list presenters and big shot producers feel comfortable around him because he does not want anything from them,” his former partner Charlie Parsons told The Times. “The same is true of politicians.”

“Because he does not want anything from them”?? I don’t buy it for a split second. Do you mean to tell me and everyone else in this country that during those “meetings” held four times weekly fundraising for Labour was the ONLY item on the agenda? If that is true, how did you then persuade potential donors to part with their cash for party political funding purposes? There must be a reason.

For the unions it’s a no-brainer, so Waheed Alli doesn’t need to do any arm twisting there. Wouldn’t it be reasonable to assume that advocacy of a particular policy position might also have been discussed?

Still, an ally insists in the Times: “He absolutely hates all the attention. It’s been blown completely out of proportion.” Another insider told The Guardian “Waheed was an important part of Keir’s team during the election campaign, and so it was felt natural that he should get a (Downing Street) pass. The thing was, Waheed didn’t really know what he was doing there, so he handed it back.”

Natural to receive a pass, and he didn’t know what he was doing there? Really? That’s a king-size whopper and half if ever I heard one, and it would be the reaction of most other people too.

I can quite imagine he hates all the attention. It tends to suggest he is either an intensely shy and very private person, or he just wishes to remain in the shadows. If the desire is overwhelming anonymity, then what is he hiding and from whom is he hiding it, and why?

No living being, human especially, ever does anything without a reason. The track record over the last twenty-five years clearly shows that he has rubbed shoulders with the high and mighty of British left of centre politics. Indeed, Tony Blair rewarded Lord Alli’s loyalty by appointing him a life peer in 1998. The BBC summarised this as “the antithesis of the stereotypical ‘establishment’ peer – young, Asian and from the world of media and entertainment” in a fawning eulogy.

Lord Alli’s political activism and the motives behind it shouldn’t detract from his remarkable success story though. His accumulated wealth and good fortune have come because he worked hard, with recognition of and reward for family loyalty being notably evident.

But the cesspit of the Labour gravy train reeks. The sleaze is disgraceful enough, but the defence offered in unapologetic mitigation by Two-Tier and his band of buccaneers is perhaps the most despicable of all. Just ask 10 million pensioners how they feel being crushed under the jackboots of advancing Labour stormtroopers.

Ask millions of middle-class Brits how they feel about being clobbered with higher taxes come the end of this month? In other acts of piracy, further raids on pensions are on the cards too.

Your idea of change, Prime Minister, is frankly an abomination wrapped in disingenuous blankets of pure cobblers. End of!
