If Esther McVey becomes PM, will most of the UK’s budget be devoted to making her look good?
On the basis of this revelation, if Esther McVey drops out of the Tory leadership contest it won’t be because of any sexism on the party of her fellow MPs.
It will be because they are concerned about the drain on the national budget caused by her attempts to make herself look attractive.
Who would have thought she would want to spend so much public money trying to make herself seem pretty?
Still, the facts don’t lie: She claimed £8,750 on expenses, over two years, for the services of a photographer and public relations person.
The public will interpret this as an admission that she is more interested in her own image than in matters of importance to the nation.
That should be enough for her colleagues to stop her prime ministerial ambition in its tracks.

They are all as nasty and toxic as each other.
I’ve always been perplexed why so many voters admire politicians for their ability to lie and decieve.
Mutton dressed as lamb.
I think this aside, given what the men have spent expenses on…McVey was very economical with the truth over Universal credit when she was minister and was brought back to the Commons…she should have been sacked for misleading the Commons and that to me is top of the list that goes against this woman….she is not the only one…but was found out and nothing was done.
That has to be the most maniacal, evil look I have ever seen. Ugly Mcvile can never look good.
