It’s actually the complete opposite. Moreover will make wine in the U.K. the most taxed in Europe. Yet more sleight of hand by the self-servatives. But their clapping seals think the rotten fish Sushi throws to them is a succulent banquet, when it is just another lie to add to their growing mountain of lies.

The corruption is one thing and to be expected from time to time as otherwise dishonest people see opportunities to get their fingers in the till. The skulduggery to pervert parliamentary process, prevent the function of the independent body and to change the rules is just as bad. Politicians get a bad name for being in it for their own ends and they all get tarred with the same brush. Ill will is stored up and politicians are subjected to the worst excesses of some people in the public. We've seen where that leads sometimes. Paterson is just a thief. People like Leadsom are worse. Enablers of corruption and vandals of democratic harmony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cade Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 3pm today, a 3-line whip on Tory MPs means that Owen Paterson will get away scott-free after being found to be in flagrant breach of lobbying rules.

Victorian Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Grant Shapps says that the commons standards committee needs fixing because it is "damaging public confidence". No Shapps, public confidence is non-existent because of corrupt politicians perverting process in order to help their friends. Bernard Jenkin, a friend of Paterson and on the commons standards committee, suddenly believes that the commons standards commitee and the parliamentary system that follows it's recommendations is all wrong. Apparently it isn't right that ALL 650 MPs get to decide on sanctions. They are some crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NANOJAMBO Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Great to see the Unionists setting a good example for good governance by deciding they don't like the rules of a process they have supported for nearly 20 years just because one of their own own committed a massive breach of the rules and been convcited accordingly. The stench of the Tory corruption of public life is truly something now. UK : a banana republic of a parliament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
