So many totally inadequate people have risen to the top.
Look at this ridiculous man
Thinks he could and should be Prime Minister.
Not an original idea in his head and all the charisma of a potato.

I left university in 2019 with £49,600 of debt. A few months later, I became an MP and have since received a salary that puts me in the top 5% in the country. 6 years on, the repayments from my salary have brought this total to down to £48,600 - just £1,000 less.
