Nadhim Zahawi was sacked by Sunak for multiple breaches of the Ministerial Code. Suella Braverman also committed multiple breaches of the code. She was reappointed by Sunak (to a much more senior job) within a couple of days. Why?
Dear Tories, is it too much to ask that you keep your scandals, corruption and general fluffery to a Monday to Friday gig between the hours of 9 and 5. I hate to be a pain but some of us are trying to have a life outside your shizzlery #ToriesOut207#GeneralElectionNow
Michelle Mone’s PPE MEDPRO was a company that was less than 3 weeks old, with zero employee’s, no contracts, no premises, no previous transactions of any kind and with £100 in the bank.
Then the Government gave it £203,000,000.
Jail, jail, jail.
James Cleverly looking an absolute idiot on @skynews with @sophyridge right now. Has absolutely no answers re Zahawi or Johnson/BBC Chairman!
Keeps stuttering 'Zahawi is a good businessman'. That's it. Wow.
#Ridge is on fire.
Reminder, James Cleverly is our Foreign Secretary.
So is that the excuse for tax evasion quote by Zhawi "careless but not deliberate" perhaps WE should all try that and see what HRMC says to us ? And Rushi will struggle to pay his seat belt fine...doubt it.
I've asked this question before.
The whip was removed from Hancock. Why hasn't it been removed from Johnson?
Boris Johnson Continues to Break Ministerial Code, as Constituents Complain of Absentee MP – Byline Times bylinetimes.com/2022/12/20/b…
Brigden‘a been suspended for 5 days for breaking parliamentary rules. Aside from the fact no one will even notice he’s gone, what a pathetic punishment for such an abuse of a public position. In any normal job he’d get the sack.
This country is pathetic.

Q: You can’t get a train, can’t get a GP appointment, can’t be sure if an ambulance will come in time. That’s the reality of Britain in 2023. Now more promises after 13 years of Conservative rule…Why should the public believe you’re any different from those who have come before?

You got that spot on Angela, “our PM” being the operative words. He’s another Tory Govt. leader that the country didn’t vote for. Your party cares nothing for the UK population, to all intents & purposes we are in a dictatorship but you’ll be gone come the next General Election
Tomorrow, Rishi Sunak will table legislation to allow bad bosses to sack workers & to sue trade unions.
Ordinary workers will unite & we will defeat this.
Rishi Sunak, the son of immigrants dishonours his family he praises so very much, by making one of his 5 pledges describe immigrants as illegal.
It is NOT illegal to seek asylum.
In fact, the ONLY Way to claim asylum is by entering the UK without permission.
