Keith Houchen Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Obviously it’ll apply to all MPs but Nadine Dorries is self isolating (as is another minister) and is getting full pay, not SSP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get full pay if I have to self isolate for example but I don’t work for the government. It’s whatever policy your employer wants to pay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Indeed it is but I’m sure it’s scant comfort to a zero hours worker who has to choose between self isolation and putting food on the table.  Im not saying it should be a race to the bottom, quite the opposite. I wish everyone had the best health protection. I also realise this sounds like some advice from the 80s about AIDS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't get paid if I had to to self isolate, unless I were to use up holiday for the 20-21 fiscal year. I shouldn't have to use my supposed leisure time if I want to feel safe. I know vigorous hand washing is supposed to help against this virus, but the Tories hand washing excuse to get out of this mess is fucking disgraceful.

Paid Members Ronnie Posted April 10, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted April 10, 2020 It's not the first time: This wasn't placed by the Conservative Party itself but by the individual candidate, Peter Griffiths. Labour pushed the Tories to disown this MP, who actually won his seat on a swing in a Labour heartland. They didn't, with 25 of them even walking out of the Commons in protest.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators PowerButchi Posted April 16, 2020 Moderators Share Posted April 16, 2020 So, my MP has just come back from London and spent the day going door to door with 5000 leaflets.  Doughnut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
