May I say after looking at the designers work, I would prefer magnolia or white walls. All the furniture is bought by the tenant, who takes it with him when leaving.
I can't see how painting or papering walls costs so much.
Cronyism and jobs for the boys surcharging the rich and famous.

Johnson is far from perfect and his enemies reduced to endless gossiping does him no harm and makes them seem even more irrelevant.
The slime ball probably won’t be loving this bit of coverage too much.

Is the Labour Party paying for the Legal bid?

"On May 13, 2020 during Prime Minister's Questions, Conservative MP Peter Bone attacked the Electoral Commission for its investigations into four separate members of pro-Leave campaigns, who were all found innocent of any wrongdoing. He called the commission "politically corrupt, totally biased and morally bankrupt". Prime Minister Boris Johnson responded by saying that he had hoped "all those who spent so much time and energy drawing attention to their supposed guilt would spend just as long drawing attention to their genuine innocence".[17]
On August 29, 2020 Co-Chairman of the Conservative Party Amanda Milling called for major reform of the Commission in a piece in The Telegraph, accusing the organisation of a "lack of accountability" and of operating by an "unclear rulebook".[18]
Should be interesting either way the verdict go's.

What is staggering is how brazen this is.
There is real contempt for the truth and for anyone who searches for it.
I do hope the converted Tories in the "red wall" constituencies, who must now be beginning to realise the extent to which they have been conned, take note that their hero, taking in probably £250k a year, can't manage on £30,000 to redecorate and will take money from anywhere to overcome it.
And then when challenged, tells us "people don't give a monkeys" and they would rather congratulate him on the vaccine programme, which of course follows the £37bn thrown at the failed Test and Trace programme.
I have watched him for nearly 30 years. He used to be my ( utterly useless) MP. Vain, lazy, arrogant, and happy to lie his way through anything.
Giving him an 80 seat majority was a mistake this country ( and now Arlene Foster -never mind eh) will regret for decades.

Same old people who didn't want Boris or Brexit whining.
Nothing he does will be right in their eyes but who cares, they are have been and will be irrelevant as always.
Is he perfect far from, it but on the scale of the world's problems nothing he is accused of is significant.

So you, like your hero, avoids the question.
Bluster and distraction.

Why would / should the Labour Party Pay, the Electoral Commission is an independent agency that regulates party and election finance and sets standards for how elections should be run it was set up by the Government and is financed by them. Any investigations by them must have been done because of complaints made to them with sufficient evidence of wrong doing or they wouldn't have been investigated. Any "lack of accountability" and of operating by an "unclear rulebook" must be down to the Government who set it up, they can only operate within the parameters given to them.

No bluster no distraction,
I can confirm I am also paying for my own redecoration and wish someone else was.
There are far more important things to worry about.
If you would like to pay my bills to try and gain some influence then fine.
It really grates losing so many times, doesn't it?

Actually he has, he said he is paying for it.
What I suppose you mean is did he pay all the bills himself first, I for one don't care as I suspect Putin or Assad et al didn't pay them.
As some of the money comes from us the taxpayer how the bills got settled and when is of extraordinary interest to the Westminster Bubble and their sycophants to land a punch on their bete noire.
It is just not that interesting to those of us with normal lives to lead.

Yes he has said he is paying for it but he hasn't said where the money is coming from, it appears that the bill has been doing the hokey cokey but there are clear procedures in place to prevent Putin or Assad et al getting their feet under the table, if somebody paid or if he got a loan it should have been declared within 30 days. If it had gone over time even by a couple of weeks nobody would have been bothered but his constant refusal to reveal the source of the funds is rapidly becoming self flagellation.

I mean this in the nicest possible way
When I heard about Baarack, the wayward unshorn sheep who had been on the lam for about 5 years, I thought about your Covid hair.
I'm sure there's no resemblance..... or maybe just a little bit?
