This is embarrassing. Sam Coates Sky acting like he's exposed Watergate, instead of some gig tickets no one's arsed about.

Either @SamCoatesSky is following orders to keep the freebies story alive or he's a seriously substandard correspondent.

@SamCoatesSky Sam Coates biggest career scoop being - Husband takes wife to concert

@SamCoatesSky Remember the Tory cabinet used to leak to @SamCoatesSky because they classed him as thick.

@SamCoatesSky Did they? Didn't hear that. It would explain his irritation at a labour govt. Probs frustrated he no longer has contacts in №10.

@SamCoatesSky This is so pathetic and is getting boring, these attacks by our crap right wing media on members of our new Labour government who have been very good and achieved a lot since coming to power must STOP ASAP

@SamCoatesSky Great point. You'd think he'd be more concerned about £37bn of our tax money that went during Covid to the corrupt. In fairness, he isn't the sharpest tool in the box and is desperate for relevance. As ever, he who pays the piper calls the tune.

@SamCoatesSky “The tickets were provided to her husband …she was a guest” “They weren’t declared because they were beneath the declaration threshold” She (as home secretary) was involved in security conversations about London gigs following a known security threat. What is the story here?

@SamCoatesSky Oh no, is that it? She went to a gig? And the ticket was not even given to her, it was given to her husband? Constitutional crisis!!! Did it not occur to Coates that he might look a bit of a tit?

@SamCoatesSky What’s fascinating to me is that Sam Coates couldn’t secure tickets for his daughter to see Taylor. Probably gives you a pretty good idea how he’s viewed within Sky and the industry

@SamCoatesSky The Tories have raked in millions while in office. They should be investigated for fraud. There should be no lobbyists and no loans or freebies for any MP and no second job. Corporations and rich people don’t do freebies - there is always a bill to pay in some form or other.
