The fact that any Labor MP is concidering this offer is discussing, and should be removed from the Labour Party.

UKLabour MPs even considering accepting the 'bribe' should never be in office. Years of political based austerity, a short term bribe to make Brexit not so hard felt immediately. BrexitShambles will damage the whole UK economy, a little cash given to BUY support for May - WOW

Bribe

The magic money tree seems to have sprouted again.

In what way isn’t this “cash for votes”?

Cameron and Osborne did the same in 2015 at LibDems marginals and then failed to deliver. You can’t trust a Tory

The government doesn’t give in to bribes or blackmail?

Are they stupid? The chances of May sticking to her word are zero. The chance the May will still be in post to deliver are almost as small

Have they no principles at all? In any case, we are going to be so short of money post Brexit that it will be austerity for the foreseeable future, so it is a hollow bribe that won't be honoured. And why wait until now to suddenly find funds for regions so long deprived?

Their focus should be in getting in govt so they don’t have to beg for money from the opposition ffs idiots

Are they that thick? How are they not able to see that its theresa_may doing the same thing she did for DUP? Divide and conquer

I *love* the notion that the same voters who hated the EU in spite of all the money it piped their way (being the deprived areas of the UK), will somehow thank JohnMannMP and his merry band of quislings for a few extra pounds of public spending.

My question is Caroline Flint goes for it nice for her constituency where does that leave the constituencys of Ed Miliband and Rosie Winterton. Is Caroline going to share with them Doncaster

Promised 40 acres and a mule. Still waiting.

Banana Republic politics. Is this where Brexit has left the UK?

John is even beginning to look like a pork barrel

dup-style bribe, more like

Call it what it is bribery If the money id there it should be used on the communities anyway and Labour should use that in attacking the tories

Judas

Is Onasanya the first MP to be jailed in 28 years, as your article claims? What about Chris Huhne?
