Labour Peer Faces Investigation After Being Accused of Lying in Debate

Sir Keir Starmer’s ex-ethics adviser is under parliamentary investigation after being accused of lying in a Lords debate about Labour’s proposed VAT on private school fees. The Mail has the story.

In an emotionally charged speech earlier this month, Baroness Ramsey of Wall Heath claimed that pupils at her daughter’s “hard-pressed” state school were banned from running in their playground because there was too little space.

This, she said, was because some of its land had been sold to a neighbouring private school in a “desperate” bid to raise “extra cash”.

“My daughter pressed her face up to the wire fence, gazing at the endless fields stretched out in front of her for the benefit of the one in 15, and thought that that was not fair,” she told the Lords.

But last night Baroness Ramsey… was facing questions over whether she had “concocted a story” to mislead her fellow peers. 

In a hard-hitting complaint to the House of Lords Commissioners, seen by the MoS, another parent from Dulwich in South London, near where Baroness Ramsey lives, claims the peer’s account was “fundamentally untrue”.

The complainant, a father of two who wants to remain anonymous, says he has “confirmed” there had been no such sale of land and “certainly not between the only state and independent schools which do border each other in the area”.

The complainant says Baroness Ramsey… could only have been referring to Charter School North Dulwich and the neighbouring private James Allen’s Girls’ School (JAGS). 

The parent says there has been “no land transfer between the schools, and JAGS has owned its site since 1886”. A JAGS spokesman confirmed that no sale of land had taken place.

Given that this is a Police matter now, I presume we can expect them to send the Starmtroopers around to her house, this morning, have an all night court sitting, and have her banged up for 9 years by Monday morning? Or will the jails suddenly be ‘full’ again….

Ethics? Labour and Ethics? Oh dear me! The Ethics Advisor is using Two-Tier Ethics; Lie, Lie, Lie! The wheels really are falling off the bus and they aren’t out of the Car Park yet!
Two-Tiers latest wizard wheeze was trying to get away with thousands for his wifes clothes. Great isn’t it, Mr Ethics (his Dad was a Toolmaker you know) spends a £20,000 donated bung on clothes and glasses, takes another bung for his wifes clothes and, in his own words, sentences “up to 4,000” pensioners to death.
What else are The Murder Party hiding?

It gets even better, “a member of the Committee on Standards in Public Life.” I am sure her letter of resignation from this Committee has already been submitted.

Jane Ramsey, Baroness Ramsey of Wall Heath is a British politician and health adviser. She chairs the board of trustees of the national charity Young Epilepsy, and was a senior adviser on standards and ethics to the Labour Party and a member of the Committee on Standards in Public Life. Ramsey has been a member of the House of Lords since 2024.”

It appears she has never done a proper day’s work in her life according to the above synopsis.

We must also not forget a big thank you is owed to the father of two who stood his ground and called out this useless P O S. A good man.

Well I must admit that news that a Labour politician is telling porky pies has come as a terrible shock. I thought this Labour government was the government of probity and tough moral decisions. Apparently not. This Ramsey character is clearly just another run of the mill grifter extracting a comfortable living from taxpayers while at the same time stirring up class divisions.

How very sad that a scammer like Ramsey cannot afford to send her daughter to private school. Of course this is not to imply she is using the politics of class to lodge a grievance, heaven forbid. Oh no, Ramsey was simply thinking of the “one in fifteen…”

My daughter pressed her face up to the wire fence, gazing at the endless fields stretched out in front of her for the benefit of the one in 15, and thought that that was not fair,” she told the Lords.”

How sweet. What a mother.

I can only see Ramsey achieving a Starmer promotion on the back of this stirling work.

This sort of thing, along with Starmers glasses and clothing bung, his hiding of his wifes new bung wardrobe and the obvious spite towards pensioners is going to bring his Government down. I give Reeves 10 months at tops after her forthcoming budget. Two-Tier will last 2 years tops before the party chuck him out. By next Spring they will be the most hated party we have ever had in Government. Nobody wanted them in the first place.

I share your anger Richard but not your optimism. Even if Kneel and Robber Reeves are displaced relatively quickly their replacements will be equally as bad. We must remember their agenda has been set elsewhere and they are simply order takers. Our political system is firked beyond all repair and I don’t see a way out.

Most certainly that is true Hux, I just cannot see Labour allowing them to carry on for too long simply because if they do they have zero chance of a second term. The agenda was set long ago and this is why no Government will tackle “legal” immigration let alone illegal.

If elections proceed in 2029, and this is a big if, even a party other than Labour will still be carrying out the orders of the Davos Deviants so as I stated our political system is well and truly bust. The political system in the West is nothing more than pantomime to keep the plebs entertained while the order takers carry out the WEF/Davos demands.

I do not find it entertaining! I find it horrific that these people even exist, they need to remember the executions when the 3rd Reich was finally overthrown. This has only just started, but history (much maligned by the left now) says where it will go. Fuhrer 2TStarmhilter has plans for us all, it will be concentration camps next for social media comments. I expect that the released murderers and rapists will become his SS next.

clearly her Daughter has the maturity and wide political reading of that of the average Politician, was the Daughter filmed during playtime with her face “pressed” against the wire fence, was it barbed wire perhaps, planted their by the heartless private school pupils?
The woman missed her vocation she should be writing novels, it appears her life is little more than one built on fiction and the promotion of division and envy, just the sort of person we want to lead the country to unity.

She gets £332 per day attendance allowance, plus travel expenses and subsidised restaurant facilities.for telling lies.Every day she in the Lords a Pensioners life could be saved instead. She is paid to tell lies and even makes a fool of her own daughter to accomplish the lies.
What kind of bloody mother tells lies to the nation about her own daughter?

No idea who you mean to be honest but the lack of morality and parenthood remains the same. What child would want her as their mother?

There is a strong possibility that Ramsey’s daughter will take on board the morals, or lack thereof, of her mother and so this dark cloud which should follow her throughout life will be most probably dismissed as some sort of class hatred.

No doubt at all that she has been indoctrinated to hate Tories and the rich apart from her own family and their chums of course. Never ceases to amaze me how the rich Socialist will always attack those with equal privilege for having those privileges. “No, no, I don’t count as privileged, I’m a Socialist, we help the little people. We are, for example, making the lives of Pensioners so much better by giving them even more money” as Reeves may well have said.

Gummer (Ld Deben now) tried to get his 4 year old daughter to eat a burger on TV to prove that Mad cow disease (which killed 180 people) wasn’t an issue. She declined…proof that amongst the first things one should learn in life is that politicians can’t be trusted – even your father….

I am trying to find what her qualificatiobs are. In her Wiki piece it says she was training as a barrister, but I am sure if she successfully completed the training she. would be referred to as a barrister.
A friend, now a music teacher, trained as a chartered accountant but dropped out. I don’t think anyone would entrust their accounts to her.

There are women in the Labour Party who maintain “trans women are women”. I despair at some of the traitorous, pathetic handmaidens, all too happy to side with hateful, opportunistic, potentially dangerous men to shat all over fellow females, quite frankly. It’s even more depressing if they’re mothers of daughters, and ought to be setting a good, strong example to girls who look up to them. How can we expect kids of either gender to turn out normal if they’ve got parents like this? Same could go for Starmer and many others, of course.

I expect that the citizen who has possibly exposed that Labour are economical with the truth must be a ‘right-wing thug’ and so should be prosecuted and imprisoned by Starmer’s useless plods for daring to cast slurs on the most honest government our once great country has ever had.
