Agree. He’s cultivated a ‘straight-talking man’ image, but most of what he says is a mix of lightweight sound bites, irrelevancies or bks.
Shame he didn’t stay in the Labour Party
The smug middle class lefties would love him ..

Heard him on the radio for first time. Breathe of fresh air for his direct approach. Didn’t agree with everything but a refreshing change from the usual dull mp who offers nothing and waffles on with the usual sound bites.
I will give him credit that he’s more straight talking and doesn’t avoid questions so much like most MPs. His only problem is that he talks on an empty head. 1 times in 100 he’ll take sense the others he’s emptying a septic tank

Exactly, its more 'st talking man' as opposed to straight talking man. We're dealing with someone so utterly inept and lacking in self awareness that he recently posted on twitter about stuff that according to him 'you wont find the MSM reporting this' He backed this up by using headlines and subheadings from yes, that's right, the MSM. He is an utter clown and those who support him are no better.

Utterly inept and a clown indeed. Perfect qualifications to be deputy chairman of the Cons!

Another classic from Lee - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-65046271

The same guy who, about 18 months or so back, posted on social media that MP's were already well paid and any of them that decided to top up their wage by taking 2nd / 3rd jobs from private companies outside parliament were a disgrace and should get a job that didn't involve being an MP laugh

Under the most recent Register of Interests, it turns out he's recently signed a deal for £100k a year in exchange for "up to 8 hours" of his time a week to work for & host his own GB News show alongside all the other various current / former / soon to be ex Tory MP's.

Does he become 100,000p Lee now? getmecoat

Other links available via the usual outlets, search engines, etc, including Lee's favourite - the MSM hehe

Lee is in a social media spat with Carol Vordermann

https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/local-news/not...

I am upset at this as I like both of them. Lee for being one of the greatest most trustworthy politicians of his generation nay the last 50- years.
Carol because she is well ...........Carol.
Carol is Honest trustworthy and a woman who really inspires confidence and trust in those excellent financial products she markets.
If you are over 50 and looking for a funeral plan then Carol has it covered.
It's sad when two people you trust, that you look up to, that you respect fall out like this.

How prescient of you. I have similar feelings about Don and Stormy, it’s so hard to see these things unfold. After much agonising I’ve decided to go with Carol and Stormy, can’t explain it but hope it doesn’t go tits up.

I wonder if he will defect to Reform? He has changed party once already, of course, and he may decide he has nothing to lose.

Lee has given a statement:
"Following a call with the chief whip, I understand the difficult position that I have put both he and the prime minister in with regard to my comments.

"I fully accept that they had no option but to suspend the whip in these circumstances.

"However, I will continue to support the government's efforts to call out extremism in all its forms - be that antisemitism or Islamophobia"

I think that shows the real moral courage of the man.
He knows he has caused issues for the party and instead of blaming them he admits they had to do what they did do.
He has once again shown his integrity.
