Chancellor did not share tax insights at drinks party, says Tory chairman

The Sunday Times claims Kwasi Kwarteng was "egged on" by hedge fund managers to continue with his plan for tax cuts

Jake Berry said Kwasi Kwarteng had not shared any insights at the party - which he was also at - held in the hours after his mini-budget last week.Lib Dems have called for an inquiry. After the chancellor's tax-cutting mini-budget on 23 September, he attended a gathering at the Chelsea home of a City financier where he gave guests insights about planned spending cuts, according to the Sunday Times.

The event was not for hedge fund managers, but rather for "Britain's leading entrepreneurs", he added, although he admitted he knew of at least one hedge fund manager who was there.

Oh yeh …..I wouldn’t believe any Tory ….

How does he know, was he in attendance quaffing champers also?

And, of course, we all believe him!

Yep, he would say that wouldn't he? I'm sure he's as honest as the rest of them have proven themselves over the last couple of years

Welcome to visit the website

Glad they've cleared that up then.

The Tory chairman lies. Several people have said the contrary .

are finished. No one believes a word anymore. BBC not fit for purpose.

And you know this because....?

Oh well that’s ok then - funny how they all shorted the pound the next day eh ? Chairman can say what he likes, nobody believes it

Because the TORY SEWAGE PARTY has proven trust issues when it comes to the truth

Cue footage of him sharing info *before* mini budget. 'Well, I was honest when I said I didn't share this information *at* the champers and nibbles event' (insert Dr evil little finger thing)

😉

Trading has been a lot easier. I invested A thousand dollars and got a good and massive return in few days. SolinaC_DTrader skills and accountability has been be best all thanks to her.

Damage control from the Chief propaganda themselves. How can ever ever believe anything that comes from this so called News Channel. We've all seen the article and how The Tory Chairman feels about the cost of living crisis.

bull

Here we go again time for torys to go

And we’re supposed to believe this bunch of greedy selfish monsters?

…probably because he had no actual insights to share.

...appearance of impropriety...

Do people other than Daily Mail readers actually believe this? 🤦‍♂️ 😂

In the same way that the former PM provided assurances that all Covid guidelines were followed in Downing Street?

The chairman is a Tory odds on he/she is a liar

Maybe he just went there to test his eyesight

THEY ARE ALL IN IT TOGETHER ALL ROBBING THE POOR, THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO LIZ TRUST THINKS ARE GOING TO INVEST AND CREATE JOBS AND WEALTH, THEY WILL, BUT ONLY FOR THEMSELVES, THEY HAVE DONE THIS FOR 12 YEARS.

Bollocks!

How would he know? Was he there too? Would the last Tory to leave the champagne reception please turn off the lights?

Of course he didn’t. That was before the drinks party.

Don’t believe them. NeverTrustATory Why did they have a Champagne celebration in Downing Street after making £Millions on crashing Pound / Economy Certainly king up to the origin of their name.

Too busy sniffing talc.

He just asked for their bank details to distribute the fortune he’d just inherited, not having a favourable interest rate on his own account

for the past 20 years you and NATO tried to stop mullahs from getting neuclear weapons and you fail people of Iran are finishing the job that you faild why don’t you support them. today mullahs rockets are killing Ukraine tomorrow…Do Not negotiat with terrorist MahsaAmini

You think anyone is going to believe that story? The markets started crashing immediately on his announcement, the only thing that would be discussed is the crash he just caused and asking him ‘how you going to fix it mate?’

Oh that's alright then

How does Mr Berry know for curtain & let's be honest donors do make donations to a party to gain favour & the inside track, do they? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I may be considered uneducated but that doesn't mean I am thick & gullible far from it. I wouldn't be anywhere near donors at this point

Desperate left wing media story again being spun by the BBC.

Oh O.K then, after all it’s not like the Tories to tell blatant lies is it?

whose side are you on BBC ? Of course he is going to say that. The Tories lie as much as the RUSSIAN ORCS.

I mean, he would say that wouldn’t he

How on earth did he de come chancellor, methinks not for his abilities more for his ethnicity

Another Tory lie no doubt

And Boris doesn’t lie

Tories are known for their lying you may be foolish to believe their lies but stop taking the public for fools We've seen how the chancellor behaves at the Queen's funeral so I don't believe he didn't share this

Hedge fund managers say otherwise

He's a liar.

Well that’s a relief, I for one am satisfied with that, this government has an excellent track record with honesty and transparency…

Ah that’s ok then, of course we all believe JakeBerry . Nothing to see here.

Because he said it, we believe it!!

Ha. Right.

Well if he says he didn’t then we will have to take his word for it because they don’t tell lies do they or do they

And do we believe that?

Here we go again From Partygate to champagnegate The UKLabour left going their work, aided by the bbc

Yes yes and no partying went on in 10 downing street! 😂😂😂

Bollocks...

To be honest i would not believe this statement

Yes he did he’s a lier

Chancellor didn't share tax plans with any of the cabinet should be a more important headline.

If the Tory chairman was also present at these drinks party, that’s an even bigger ballgame. Conservatives

Absolutely laughable. Should he be dining with potential speculators at this time, at all? Where's proper standard for good conduct gone in this Tory government?

Oh you have to be joking

Surely thats something he should be explaining to the police and courts

Game over Kwasi!

🤥

Oh yes he did!

Let's get the police to confirm that

You can tell this is lies because he's ToryScum

And we're supposed to take his word? 🤔🤣🤣🤣🤣

OK, that's cleared that up then. Lying toerags.

Tories are LiARS.

Don't believe him at all another Tory liar toryscumout

Covering their butts by lying appears to be the most consistent trait in Tory governments this century.

Phew, I never though he did....very trustworthy those tories.

Alcohol induced decisions !!

Just saying it doesn’t make it true. This is the most corrupt government ever and are implicated in their lies.

What was the party for then?

Is the chancellor not allowed to meet bankers? It’s like Starmer not meeting his union paymasters

But probably did during the late Queen’s funeral. We by was he laughing?

Pull the other one 😂

Phew!! What a relief! I thought, for one minute that a tory had committed an indiscretion!! Thank you for clearing that up, tory chairman. Your a god!!

Oh well if a Tory says nothing was discussed then thats it. Honest as the day is long! ToryLies ToriesOutNow toriespartiedwhilepeopledied TrussOut

Oh right, they just 'accidentally' took short positions on the pound.

'Boris was completely unaware of Chris Pinchers past' How many tories were paraded before the media with that lie?

Never trust a tory

Yes! and we really don’t believe a word

He shouldn't have been there at all

Yeah right.

Keep a tight control of public debt. Keep Money GDP growing 4%pa, consistent with zero inflation. Keynes was wrong. Windfall Gains taxes are very theoretical. Reducing basic rate income tax from 20 pence to 19 pence would be financed by public debt.

Of course he would say that. Corrupt the lot of them.

All those people who called for the blood of Boris and Rishi Sunak must be wishing the feck they had kept quiet now. This pair of spitting image puppets have just slashed the throat of the Tory party's chances in the next election. A month and they will be gone i hope.

Who the hell does this guy think he is ? Drinks party ? AYFR ? Grow up and face reality, if you need to be an alcoholic, leave Government now.

Can’t help yourself can you? ScumMedia DefundTheBBC

Ummmm

Not sure we can trust that from the party of 'no rules were broken'

The Tory chairman is a liar

But had he spoken to them before his fiscal event, eh, readers?

Ffs are they going to say anything different and do they think we are all as thick as disTruss

Of course he did! They always do!

Cannot believe a word of what the Tories say.

Why did he have the party?

Even after everything, they still think the voting public are still stupid. Do they not see they’ve enlighten the politically ignorant and awakened the blinkered.

Honestly, these people think we were born yesterday? Unbelievable. I hope they loose so bad the next elections

Smiling assassin

And you believe him why

How very trusting of you 😂😂😂😂

Aye right. Kwasi Kwarteng ‘had champagne with financiers who call him “idiot”’ | Metro News ToryCriminalsUnfitToGovern

And there were no lock down parties in Downing Street

And let 's not forget...there were no parties, or attendees weren't aware they were at a party. ToryCorruption ToryCriminals ToryLies cronyism

That's that sorted then

Your remainer coup will fail

Yawn

Liar!Liar!

Tories aren’t even good at lying !

: Tory mouthpiece, directed by Tories for the past century.

Default setting for a Tory MP: Liar.

How does he know that?! 🤔 Sounds a lot like ‘There were no parties’ 🙄

Is that similar to 'no parties took place'?

Of course not. Must think we’re all stupid.

Then why did they all go on to bet against the £? Could they read his mind?

StopHazaraGenocide

So it’s probably true that he did.

They were all too busy laughing at the money they were making

Tories lie all the time, and the BBC lies on their behalf.

Isn't that assuming he had something credible to share?

I guess that clears that up then.

That makes sense as there was no insight to the taxes, so in essence a truthful statement.

What did they talk about then? And, the timing! Ill advised or corrupt?

Yea I think the Tories have too much integrity to do that eh 🤣course he did it's a robbery that's going on

Lol, we've been told he did. Why would chairman come out with this line? Why would bbc gaslight me with it? Independent broadcaster or tory propaganda mouthpiece?

If Tory chairman says tax insights weren't disclosed at a drinks party..then it must be true.Have we ever known the Tory party to tell lies Oh dear..might be a tad easier to reflect on when did they ever tell the voting public the truth.

lol

Arrest him.

Is the same as Boris Johnson didn’t know about any party’s?

Was the Tory Chairman there?

Ok yea 😂😂😂

hogwash....

Jake Berry did not say that. He said he hadn’t heard Kwarteng share such information.

Tory Chairman... So you could find no honest sources then?

Yeah just a coincidence he went and did the mini budget on his own without consulting his cabinet, Then went for celebratory drinks with his hedge fund pals and ex boss and have since made a mint by betting on the pound falling. Hiding the sketchiness in plain sight!

Lol.....yeah right
