There's a whole world of difference between outright immoral financial corruption and in your words Scottish Government project inefficiency and paying Judiciary costs. Show me where the SNP Government has deliberately committed major financial fraud and corruption on the large scale we are seeing with westminster. Financial corruption. Are you talking about Cameron lobbying for Greensill? If you are, yes he lobbied hard but he got nowhere. The company went bust. The question about lobbying and access is valid and needs to b fixed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapelhall chap Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Moray Ross says there are lots of investigations going on and he needs to wait and see. The opposite of all the guilty verdicts he issued, along with the Tory machine and Press pals, last month, before any reports had been issued. Hypocrite and branch subservience. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiGi Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 BBC won't report on this because they say people aren't interested in it. Didn't stop them making the Salmond inquiry front page news for weeks at a time, I'm sure the average punter in Yorkshire or the midlands probably didn't give a shit about that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wile E Coyote Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Liz Truss has no morals. Basically doing the rounds of interviews lying and evading questions to cover for Boris.

NotThePars Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Johnny Mercer probably believes that because someone in No10 welched out of building a giant monument to the troops that committed the Bloody Sunday atrocity outside the walls of Free Derry. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseKillie Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 I know we have to have some kind of limit to keep this thread to sub-BRALT dimensions, but for me, the first irrefutable proof that these cúnts were not just people with differing political views from me but actuial, undeniable, cúnts who would go to war against their own population in order to shore up their position, was Orgreave. Coincidentally, the same event which forever tainted my trust in UK Print and Broadcast media. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 That's 4 separate Govt mouthpieces I've seen asked the same question re the refurbishment payment and the answer was identical including the total ignoring of the obvious follow up "yes but what was the original source of the money Johnson insists he paid out of his own account". Not even the blindingly obvious "I've no idea you would need to ask the PM" just a well circulated, rehearsed stonewall. Amazed at the loyalty some of his sycophants are showing but proof if ever it were needed how those around him seem sure he is totally bomb proof and by definition they see themselves likewise as long as they stay prone and lubed ready to take everything he thrusts at them, most notably taking the flak for every bit of dirt thrown in his direction. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've got loyalty to nobody or nothing other than their own career interests. You can guarantee lightweights like Truss, Shapps and Sharma will have their tongues just as far up Gove's arse when the coup comes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Struggling to see where a coup gathers momentum, will need something more than is currently in the public domain. Gove going to need some followers to do his bidding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTJohnboy Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Keir Starmer is demanding a "full and transparent enquiry" into BoJo's dodgy flat renovation dealings. WOW!! You just can't ask for more than that. We are fortunate in having such a powerful opposition never afraid to ask all the right questions at the right time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starmer would be better calling for an Inquiry though - amazing how many got that wrong earlier this year with the Inquiries into Scottish Gov handling of the Salmond case. Better still, call for one much sooner looking into all the PPE contracts 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
