It's not funny. He controls budgets. He's a fat controller, ha ha! It's not funny.

I pay North of £1200 a month income tax an NI. How in the name of Jesus H. Cameron is that "freeloading"?

Fat pie munching git.

Wow such a terrible attitude and language. I used to expect more from people in power. Then as I grew up I realised that I was just naive.

£18 grand a year he gets.

He likes to call it "lunch".

I wish being a cyclist meant I didn't have to contribute to the public's coffers, I'd be significantly better off. Still, even with the tax paid, I'm still better off than Jabba... I mean Cooke. Good job riding a bike makes me a infinitely more attractive than this muppet.

Aye, and in a year or two we'll be paying you a six figure lumper and a couple of grand a month - for life - for you to sit on your backside.

Not that police pensions are absurdly generous or unaffordable.

You do, after all, contribute a whole 12 per cent of salary.

And I'm sure everyone thinks you're worth it.

Seem's he's 'Cooke'd up quite a storm...

This bloke's a complete idiot:

@tomstaniford @VincentStops Tom. When did I say that I didn't. Frankly you are the Buffon who can't read

@tomstaniford Tom you are a liar. I never said that. Be very careful you are close to deformation by your lies

15% as it happens. I'll get an ok pension because I'm paying 500 quid a month into it, and for no other reason. No such thing as a free lunch.

Unless you work for TFL.

He looks a big bit like Eric Pickles, I wonder are they from the same stable. .....

 

[The Jogger]

I wonder does he think that people who take up more space on buses should pay more?
