Does the Mail have an anti-donkey agenda? #donkeygate
The Mail is Britain's most cynical and right-wing tabloid newspaper (beating stiff competition). Today, their Sunday edition 'exposed' that the leader of the Labour Party owned an expensive property, though they also owned themselves:
This paper has form in doing this kind of hit piece. Any left-leaning British politician not living in a cardboard box has had their face splashed across these pages with screams of 'hypocrisy!' and 'liberal elitism!' That Keir Starmer is a self-made man makes no difference and obviously Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson would never get such treatment.
Unfortunately for the Mail, they didn't do their research properly and it turns out that Starmer bought this land for his disabled mother to use a donkey sanctuary.
So on British Twitter, #donkeygate is a now thing and it has been trending:
Does it matter, most if not all, politicians are wealthy....footballers are wealthy...that's life, however people get their money is not my business, but I don't like it if they get it too easy....
