I didn't make it clear - the simple statement is "due dilligence has been carried out" - that's what he infers. And even if due dilligence was followed it doesn't mean Case was cleared : due dilligence is a process not an outcome. But he doesn't say that because he opens by saying "I think".... in other words, he doesn't know. But he knows (or should know) that Case point blank refused to publicly confirm whether he attended Xmas parties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't read it with any significance to the "I think" part. The "I" means No 10 Spokesperson on behalf of No 10. In other words No 10 thinks No 10 has followed due dilligence in appointing Case. nntr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Dan Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 The shit show just keeps on rolling. The new head of the charity watchdog dramatically quit yesterday before even taking up his post. Martin Thomas, 58, a friend of Boris Johnson, stepped down from his new job after it emerged he had resigned from a previous post after being found guilty of ‘inappropriate’ conduct. It came after questions were raised about his appointment at the Charity Commission in the wake of a probe into alleged bullying earlier this year, when he was chairman of Women for Women International UK. He faced three formal misconduct complaints at the charity, which helps women in warzones rebuild their lives, in five years. In one incident, Mr Thomas sent a junior female employee a picture on WhatsApp of himself taken in a Victoria’s Secret lingerie store. He said he had intended to send it to the charity’s chief executive. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10322797/New-head-charity-watchdog-forced-resign-starting-job.html#comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Hislop 22 HOURS AGO Matthew Parris has given us a totally accurate analysis of the situation. The Tory Party was riven by Brexit. There is no reconciling the ERG fantasists pursuing their sunlit uplands and the more traditional conservatives seeking practical solutions to practical problems. Only a dissembler like Johnson, who believes in nothing other than his own advancement, was able for a while to paper over the cracks in the Tory Party. As a result of Johnson's hubristic belief in one rule for him and another set of rules for others those cracks have now been revealed for all to see. The electorate has now lost faith in a divided party trying to pretend that all is well. Even if the Tories were to find a more honest new leader, how could such a person reconcile the factions in the party and pretend that all is fine?

Confirmed: Brexit minister Lord Frost will resign from the government at end of year (as per report in @MailOnline ).

It's incredible when you think about it. Argues during the referendum that leaving the Single Market is a bad idea. Then as an unelected individual, negotiates a Brexit Deal that he then spends a year trying to undo to make it harder and worse and then quits just before the reality of the custom check changes come in.

FFS. If people just forget their ‘cult’ for just one minute and contemplate that last line, “Deregulate financial markets”. That was one of the main reasons for the last financial crash in 2008. Deregulation allowed the Financial sharks to indulge in their dodgy property-related financial transactions (sub-prime anyone?) and lax/cheap credit. Of course, anyone who watched the films ,”Inside Job” and “The Big Short”, will realise that it is just a matter of time, before we do it all again.
