      No, it's generally when anyone in politics does something that appears hypocritical (or could be twisted to appear as such).

      It's like when someone points out that Jeremy Corbyn has a house that's worth a lot of money.
      Or that Kier Starmer owns a field that "could be worth £10million if he built 20 houses on it and sold them all"

      So, it's not a conspiracy by the media against an unelected bureaucrat, but standard practice.
      It's a bit snowflakey that it's only now that there are complaints - is it because it's DC that there's Wailing?
      …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

        You sound like a chav parent defending their delinquent child who is a serial criminal.

          Surely, it just points out how principled Cummings is. He is prepared to vote against something from which he can profit

          or something
