Anyone Seen Kinnokio?

[youngmafbog]

Or is he still so firmly in the trough with his family he hasn't heard yet?

[Mamyalynne]

I'm not well up on Japanese celebs, sorry.

Mamyalynne
Wrong on both counts. He is Welsh and is a fat cat gravy train rider and is no Celeb :-)
The word 'Honourable' must be deleted from his CV also.

[jackthehat]

I haven't seen him since he gave an interview with the BBC regarding the death of Jo Cox......and he was visibly distressed whilst doing so.

[ToraToraTora]

Be Fair YMB, The Kinnocks have made a career out of the EU, must be wrench.

[Gromit]

Kinnock ceased being an EU Commisioner, 12 years ago. Glenys ceased being an MEP 7 years ago.
Incase you hadn't noticed, it has mainly been UKIP MEPs who have had their heads in the trough since 2014.

[youngmafbog]

Is it 3 months until he (and his sponging clan) can sign on TTT?

[fiction-factory]

Yes w think he is House of lords with special responsibilty for EU matters, so I'm not sure whether that counts as having his snout in the trough

[youngmafbog]

If you are trying to have a dig at Our Nige it wont work me old china

[Mamyalynne]

I see who you mean now, thought gobbledygook was over - he gave an interview a few days ago.

I'm sure it's easy to find.

[ToraToraTora]

quite right gromit, takes me back when Kinnochio was a deputy commissioner with a brief to root out corruption. The first thing he did was nail some poor sod to the wall for uncovering corruption! PMSL. Will the EU ever now file and honest set of accounts?

[youngmafbog]

Ah yes Baron Kinnock, of Bedwetty will have to look for a new responsibility
now then

[youngmafbog]

No, they wont TTT.

I had noticed that it was Nigel Farage and other UKIP MEPS who fought tirelessly for the good of their country and won a Brexit vote.
In doing so they will no longer claim a MEPS salary and expenses. You can hardly say their snouts were in a trough by knowingly losing a income and happy to do so. They can't be called greedy self serving gravy train ponces.

[Zacs-Master]

As an aside....what does happen to our Euro MPs?

[dannyk13]

They will be out of a job.

[fiction-factory]

May take a few years though . i winder if there any elections due in the next couple of years and, if so, what will happen

[Bazile]

Did all these commissioners , steer clear of the trough , then ?

Christopher Soames

Christopher Tugendhat

Lord Cockfield

Leon Brittan

Chris Patten

Jonathan Hill

[youngmafbog]

No then didnt Baz. Thanks for highlighting more grazers.

That is actually and interesting point ff.

[mikey4444]

Another example of trivia !

Gromit is right at 15:21. Its the UKIP MEPs that have had their noses firmly in the trough.

[mikey4444]

Here's a question that I would like to ask Farage and his ilk.

Now that UKIP has had its way, and we have voted to leave the EU, will they wait until they lose their jobs, which could be some time away, or will they resign now ?

Or will they stay until the last second, getting as much pig-swill down their throats as they possibly can ?
