…sounds like a bit of a cunt, if reports are anything to go by.
For anyone who doesn’t know, the fragrant Rushanara (bootiful British name) is Labour MP for Bethnal Green and Stepney, and until a few days ago, served as Parliamentary Under-secretary of State for Homelessness and Rough Sleeping in Sir TwoTier Stasi’s government. That is, until the story broke stating that Mzzzzzz Ali had evicted tenants from a property in her ownership, which was then re-advertised at a rent which had increased by £700 per month.
Now I can’t claim to have any familiarity with the details of the case, but on the face of it, it’s really not a good look for the Minister for Homelessness in a Socialist government to be seen to turf out their tenants and subsequently hike the rent for a future let. The word ‘profiteering’ comes to mind. A leftie landlord who loves money; who’d have thunk it?
It will come as no surprise to learn that Mzzzzzz Ali has since resigned as Minister, no doubt after a few quiet words about ‘considering her options’ were whispered in her shell-like ear; ‘heavy heart… honour of my life to have served in a Labour government’ etc blah.
Here we go then. Let’s all play a game of spot the double standard. Anybody can join in; it really isn’t hard.
