Well done East Cheshire Hospice.

Did Sir Nick give an insight into how it’s more difficult to have Parliament pay for your house so your family trust can then rent it back to Parliament? Or how it used to be okay to slap women’s bottoms in the workplace. Or when MPs could travel 1st class to avoid being near the sort of people who travel standard class. Some people belong in the past. East Cheshire Hospice would better of without this dinosaur tarnishing their excellent reputation.
