What's Wrong With Rishi Sunak Having A Private Heated Swimming Pool In His Home?

[dave50]

It's his money, in can spend it how he wants. If he were to get rid of it, how would that benefit anyone? Sorry I haven't got a link but it's been in the news.

[naomi24]

Nothing is wrong with it.

[davebro]

I'd have one if I had his money (and someone to maintain it).

[Old_Geezer]

Provided he came by it honestly it ought not be such an issue. It's his attempts to destroy the UK that is both important and urgent to stop.

As you say, he can do what he likes with his money. At least he is in a position that he won't (hopefully) be swayed by greed during his political dealings

[anneasquith]

He could open it up to the public on a Wednesday and Sunday. ?

Lefty envy.

I was about to post much the same TTT.

[MissTerious2]

I keep agreeing with OG. I'm doing it again!

[naomi24]

anneasquith, //He could open it up to the public on a Wednesday and Sunday. ? //

Why would he invite strangers into his home? Would you?

[Redhelen72]

Well I have been told several times on here that I am a lefty!!
I have absolutely no issue with him having a pool as long as no public funds are used to pay for it.

[naomi24]

Very wise, lottie. OG talks a lot of sense.

[MissTerious2]

I was going to post 'Politics of Envy' Red. I dont use the word Lefty. I am not Lefty nor Righty just more righty than lefty. ;0)

[rowanwitch]

Maybe his wife paid for it, I don't think he would make the mistake of getting a rich benefactor to pick up the bill, even as a loan. Rich people often have swimming pools... So what, They are independently wealthy.

If I won the lottery I would love a house with a pool... Never going to happen but I am not going to waste energy envying those who have one.

I think he's the wisest and most calm of us all. And his avatar makes me think of Moses!

Is this the story?

[Gromit]

His home is in North Yorkshire but he lives in London.
Vote Conservative next year to stop him enjoying his pool :-)

[ichkeria]

Has anyone actually complained about the mere fact that Sunak has a heated pool?
That didn’t seem to be the issue entirely
