And yet thinks he can still exploit the grief of the victims. This is why he is not fit to be Prime Minister.

Screen cap of BBC Breakfast tweet: "Last year Richard Tice said Angela Rayner should resign if she had any moral decency, after she'd underpaid stamp duty. Should he also resign then by his own standards?"

Not much political judgement going on here if Isabel Oakeshott does not realise that Farage & Tice are senior members of the British establishment. Relevant here is that Oakeshott is the partner of Richard Tice jumping to the defence of Tice & his tax evasion.
