Liz Truss looking for ways to save on Government spending ...

This woman is being paid to go and speak to people. People are paying her money. To speak. To them.

What has she got to say? Genuinely, who is looking for her "expertise" to be imparted on them?

If I caught wind that any organisation I was involved with professionally or personally was paying to get her to go and talk to them I would boycott them.

Plenty ex-ToryMPs tipping up as taking heads on the "we've got space to fill" news channels. Old pals act, being asked serious questions about Labour and being treated seriously - when each and every one of them lied daily when in power.

It's almost as though the political media in London live in a tiny rhetorical bubble, in which they are never effected by anything and all the ills and woes of the country are just on paper chattering points to be scored.

Someone asked in response to this Truss quote about stopping NHS cancer treatment, what would people do who needed cancer treatment? The "bubble" response is obviously they would pay to go private. This is where we were heading under the lying Tories. It remains to be seen if the NHS will fare better under a Labour Government. The settlement of the junior doctors' dispute is an encouraging start.

I'm no great fan of Janey Godley, but no one facing cancer deserves to have the potential leader of the Scottish Tories post this on social media.

I know this isn’t recent but it’s disgusting, is it a hate crime.?

Read the above, he is still a pwick.

10,000 homes on ex-military bases were never built

Because they used them to house/detain asylum seekers.

Not quite as simple as that. The scheme was ended in 2022; only one of the seven sites in the scheme was used to house asylum seekers and that wasn't done until last year, after the arrangement with Homes England was terminated. Announced to great fanfare, once again the Lying Tory Government did absolutely nothing. Zip. Nada.

Alarm at failure to inspect 60% of England homecare providers in four years or longer

Care leaders have warned of a serious safety risk as research revealed 60% of homecare providers had not been inspected for at least four years, or ever.

As the government prepares to receive a report on profound failings at its Care Quality Commission (CQC) that triggered the chief executive’s removal this summer and a public apology, the Homecare Association warned 37% of providers of domiciliary care services had not been rated for at least four years and 23% had never been rated.

If anyone votes for the Lying Tories again in my lifetime, they need their heads examined.

Private Eye. Central Bedfordshire council has “mothballed” the housing company it set up in 2020, New Vista Homes, because despite consuming £600,000 of public money a year it hasn’t actually built any houses.

Apparently a tory MP involved with New Vista Homes.

£600,000 for producing nowt is actually a bargain with that lot. They usually spend way more with nothing to show for it.

Ahem, Bozo's garden bridge project anyone?

Just the £53m and nothing delivered despite massive consultancy fees to the favoured few and a handy £1.7m to the chief executive who delivered zilch- in terms of what a finished bridge/garden might look like.

Never even started.

Is that where the SNP's missing £600k went?

HS2 consultancy was apparently a good place to be.

I'd say like being Matt Hancock's pub landlord but on a much larger scale.

That cost is ineffable. Its biggest cost to the nation is probably how it changed content of its discourse, "whaa, boohoo, foreigners - whaa, boohoo the EU are nazis, sovereignty nyaanya".

Articles like this mean nothing until the money is recovered and the miscreants do jail time.

Not just those who benefited from it but right back to the people that came up with the idea and those involved throughout the whole scam.

ITV drama series required before the general public realise just how horrendously criminal this is.

A great article as usual from JBM on the subject. One major problem is the constant loop of objections meetings and planning. I put up before a train line in England only 5 miles long got eventually scrapped after sitting 8 years in planning and having a 20k page report. Someone is making huge amounts from planning and objections in the uk it would be good if someone dug into it.

Planning procrastination and planning scams took a lot of cash no doubt, but the sheer incompetence and plain corruption is off the scale.

Billions gone on nothing.

This will somehow be the fault of migrants of course.

Really enjoyed this long form interview by Amol Rajan with John Major.
If you have a spare 44 minutes I urge you to check it out.
It's what UK politicians used to be like.

i doubt very much British Labour will recover anything, still waiting on this "Covid corruption tsar" to be announced, but i'm sure it's just the usual waiting game until the public either forget or just don't care of the blatant corruption
