I hadn’t really looked at this story until this morning.
A bit of a ‘wow’ moment, it’s as clear a case of corruption in public office as you can get. Which denied the poorest borough in England £45million, and instead lines the pockets of the owner of Express Newspapers and Nice n Fat. All the emails and bank records seem to be public record, it’s an open and shut case.
In normal times he’d be straight out the door.
Its really something the police should be looking at.

Kudos to labour for pushing this one.

They eventually got all the records released after the Tories refusing. (Not like them)

They've moved on from cash for questions, to cash for housing developments. Much more money in that.

Follow the money and you'll always find the Tories in the trough.

It's got to go to the standards committee now.

I'd jail Desmond just for spelling dough 'doe'.

"Doe, it's dear, it's far too dear,
Pay Jenrick a smaller sum."

This is the "new normal".

The Vote Leave normal - corrupt, lying *****baggery is de rigeur. If you get caught, just keep lying until it goes away.

Asked how ordinary members of the public can influence planning decisions in the same way Richard Desmond was able to, Business Minister Nadhim Zahawi says they should go to Conservative party fundraisers and talk to Tory MPs.

This is what scares me about politics now. We get a laugh at Trump but I genuinely don't think our politicians are much better. I'm not sure what's happened to voters in this country but they seem to not just willing, but desperate to support some truly idiotic ideas and incompetent, serial liars.

At least we've always got Nadhim Zahawi to tell it like it is.

Any other minister would have lied about Jenrick's shenanigans. But Zahawi's too dim to lie, so he just comes right out and explains that anyone, whoever they are, can influence government decision-making by going to a Tory fundraiser and giving them money.

Im really enjoying his work. He looks a lot like my neighbour Tony, who is also a prick.

No10 won't say how many times Boris Johnson met Richard Desmond in months before his £1bn scheme was approved

No10 won't say if Richard Desmond sent Boris Johnson text messages about development

No10 won't say if Richard Desmond met aides working for Boris Johnson

Criticism in the Commons of Johnson's father who recently travelled to Greece.

Rees-Mogg replied with a Bible reference which made no sense.

Another liar who hides behind "a faith", like that last PM, the one who danced like an animated lolly stick.

The Jenrick cash for favours story continues.

They're really up to their necks in it, but those who vote for them see nothing, move along. Thousands donated to the party but it doesn't really matter, as they don't care anymore. Shysters.

The criticism is ridiculous. He went to Greece to ‘Covid proof’ his house so he could rent it out through the summer. It doesn’t sound implausible at all Buffoon Junior refuses to answer questions about it today.

It’s another ‘I was testing my eyesight on a drive to Barnard Castle’ all over again.
What a gutless, gullible, electorate to put up with this absolute disgrace of a government. The French would have taken to the streets weeks ago.

'Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories.'

The 2nd Epistle of Peter would have provided a suitable quote to describe Rees-Mogg, Johnson and their ilk.

The conduct of this government absolutely infuriates me. It is so poor, it is actually deserving of consequences far worse than have been seen so far.

What is starting to irk me almost as much is the fact that they appear to be getting away with it.

As a point of principle, I don't think Johnson should have to answer questions about his father in Parliament in this context. He, presumably, has no control over where his father goes or what he does.

I was more intrigued by Rees-Mogg's response. It was typically snooty, but suggests to me he maybe doesn't understand the bible reference he mentioned. Here's the clip:

Sunak, who seems to be a sort of Great White Hope for some who recognise that the UK cabinet is essentially useless, blotted his copybook a bit by claiming that he couldn't wait to get back to the pub. He doesn't drink.

Nonsensical literary references instead of reasoned argument? Is he building up to the top job when Johnson gets sacked by the suits?

Tbf to Rees-Mogg he attends Mass given by the schismatic SSPX brigade. They hide their bigotries and hatred behind a veneer of enjoying Mass in Latin. He probably misunderstood the quote because he's never heard it in English before.

Remember when the PM said no border checks on the irish border. He kept it in house so to speak.
