Another Crooked Conservative
Baroness Mone
And what a pathetic apology
Can't she face the courts for this ?

I bet she doesn't show her face in Glasgow , they would lynch her
Re: Another Crooked Conservative
She's on Laura Kuenssberg on Sunday now with her hubby
Making a profit of 60 million quid during the pandemic
Over a period of months she denied a connection between her and the company that made the profit ......difficult as it was her and her husbands
Re: Another Crooked Conservative
It’s astonishing. Utter crooks.

And all she ever did in her life was make a tit out of herself. Easy money
Re: Another Crooked Conservative
I wonder if McVey looks at Mone, Hancock, Sunak etc ?

Probably not?
Re: Another Crooked Conservative
It still surprises me that people think it's only the opposite side of their belief who are corrupt in politics.

I'm not sure they do, but, in the case of PPE, the, alleged, corruption does seem to be pretty one sided.

More opportunities if they belong to the side in power.
It also used to make a difference if one side had a lot of ‘businessmen (or women)’ in their ranks and the other side had a lot of ex shop stewards. Scope for corruption on both sides but different scale and type - certainly when it comes to corruption with government contracts like the PPE scandal.
These days both sides are more likely to be filled with Oxbridge graduates who worked a few years for a bank (or hedge fund) before becoming a researcher for a Cabinet Minister or shadow, and then were forced onto a candidate shortlist in time to join the faceless know nothings in Westminster.

They made Prince Andrew look genuine.
Re: Another Crooked Conservative
I must be old fashioned or something but it made me smile when she says in her defence that the £60 million is her husband's money not hers. They are married aren't they? What sort of relationship is that with this "his" and "her" money business unless it's just a handy excuse? She apparently has to wait and see if he dies first!!

I did catch a glimpse of this last night whilst visiting my parents, I do not normally see the news, it does seem quite staggering what went on with this but I'm not at all surprised, getting caught IMO doesn't bother them, being shamed on national TV is the embarrassment for them for when they get together at the exclusive Bridge Club and the bushy eyebrows being raised as they walk through the door. I've said it many times but will say it again, I'll not vote in a general election again but will probably vote in the local elections only if someone appeals to a particular issue I'm interested in, the last chap I voted for was a chap who had anti Vax as part of his spiel, I think he got about 25 votes 😂 ( to be fair it was worded more of Pro Choice rather than anti Vax).

This bunch of conservatives are by far the biggest bunch of shysters
Even you can't deny that unless you are running at the next election for them

Re: Another Crooked Conservative
Sadly you're more than likely right? The self interest and the need not to open the proverbial can of worms that would incriminate others will see the powers that be stalling of any meaningful government investigation?

No wonder the mask mandate was pushed , even though they were likely to more harm than good, according to Jenny Harries

I do agree with this BTW, IMO the most corrupt lot of my lifetime, a truly disgusting shower of shit.
Or, maybe because of methods of reporting info available etc. governments of the past shielded from the current
levels of corruption that gets exposed. ?

Totally separate argument but M.P. S were exempt from vaccination passports for the House of Commons as well.
https://www.heraldscotland.com/polit...owded-commons/
But Sir Lindsay said he didn't expect the policy to apply to the Commons, despite more than half the 650 MPs routinely packed the chamber for PMQs before the pandemic.
