NewBasfordlad 3,599 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Dennis Skinner another snout in the trough. Late 70s I was working on Clay Lane, Clay Cross installing central heating in council housing and met one of his relatives. She was quite open about the fact she could get anything she wanted from the council as 'her Dennis' would sort out any problems. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bubblewrap 3,815 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 I don't believe that for one minute But there were a brother or two of Dennis's on Bolsover council some years ago though. And maybe just maybe it was this "relative" showing off. And anyway Dennis can't be all that be he's been the MP for Bolsover since 1970. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

siddha 825 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 There is little difference between Labour and Conservative these days. I think Tony Benn and Dennis Skinner would describe themselves as Socialists and that's what makes them different. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
