Johnson told the Electoral commission not to investigate Russian interference in the Brexit vote. Johnson who had top clearance on all of the UK security policies. The same guy who gave his security detail the slip so he could go party with FSB agents shortly after a NATO meeting regarding the Russians poisoning UK citizens. The Tory party machine gave a Lord the title of Lord of Siberia along with access to the house.

I am not very good with dot to dot, I wonder where the issue may be coming from?

FTFY: Some people say how high.

The rest of us tell the idiot to go forth and multiple.

I just checked. It is illegal to sell nicotine vaping products to anyone under the age of 18 in the UK. Hands up, I am guilty of making assumptions here.

Precisely why we should spend police budgeting on an investigation. It is not unusual for some people to push their ethnicity and a victimisation claim to garner votes. If there is malice behind it, then she deserves protection. This is a potential MP after all. But if it is a narrative just to gain votes that she would not get, then that also should be known.

I think it is fair to question it since she is resorting to the BBC media to push a storyline.

Tory politician or not, anyone caught committing racism against a potential MP should have the book thrown at them. It something that is worth spending police budgets on to get to the bottom of it.

You’re literally asserting that an events company is not allowed to work for COP

BS I am repeating what is stated in the article. They are using public funds to pay a subsidiary of the Daily Mail. Which is an ardent Tory media machine. They are enforcing this payment without public scrutiny. If there is a valid reason for doing this, then be open about it. But like all Tory theft, they like to hide the details.

It tried to connect two different events (COP 28 and an oil event listed in their annual report) and claim some sort of nefarious link.

The fact also remains that there has been a lot of unanswered speculation regarding the president Sultan al-Jaber, who has major links to DMG events LLC. DMG events LLC hired Johnson to host a speech Singapore. Failing to allow for scrutiny in the tender process is not absolute proof of wrong doing, but it raises eye brows from anyone with a brain.

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/nov/15/cop28-host-uae-oil-plans-data

Sultan Al Jaber is the chief executive of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (Adnoc) and president of the Cop28 summit, which begins on 30 November. The researchers behind the new data said Adnoc’s huge planned expansion of oil and gas production was a clear conflict of interest and they said his position was “ridiculous”.


they have no role in the design of the UK pavilion events programme. The cost of the contract is covered entirely by private sector sponsorship.”

I never stated that DMG had anything to do with the presentation side of the event. I do not see a point here.


You’re right to be sceptical with this government. You’re absolutely wrong to not even try to seek the truth.

Here we both agree. This government is an abomination. There is nothing to be gained from pushing a lie, because once a lie is found out, then all other queries regarding this government can have their validity questioned. I am happy to admit I have made an error if there is one. I am fairly confident that this will be another item that Labour will put under the spotlight after the next GE. Time will tell.

Mate what do you think they are doing for £500k. They are supplying a table and a couple of bodies for support. They are not paying for transport, or even hotel room hire. If they were having to pay for the lease of the event office, which is unlikely, how much do you think this is? It is not a great deal. Someone is pocketing a few hundred thousand from this.

The tender was not allowed to go to any other supplier. That in itself raises questions of why they are refusing to follow accepted guidelines. They have very close links to oil companies, which means the oil companies will have an influence on position and effectiveness of each group. Energy companies do not want an effective COP event.

All of this and yet you want to throw in inuendo and derision. Defending these scumbags is a pitiful hill to die on.

About 15 food banks.

Its just half a million quid. I suppose it is a lot less than they have paid in bribes to others.

I cannot understand why there is no law banning the sale of Vape mixture to kids in any shape or form. Prohibition does not work where there is a desire to use a product, and vapes are so easy to manufacture that it will never be effective.

FTFY: The Tories want British people in low paid work and no training opportunities.

Anti-royal pro-colonial is a angle we don’t often see

Look at the comment above and stick to the context

Britain had claimed Greece as a colony

andthenthreemore see anyone can do that

 

This really is a big nope from me. Great they encourage donations, but the blood in the cooling fluid, why?

Andy Cooper doesn't have a job to go to. Does that mean he has a message for himself?

 

fait accompli

 

Jo Maugham, Director of the Good Law Project, posted on X: “What a brave, democratic, free speech loving, nation we have become under the so-called Conservative Party.”

The most pertinent part for me. The Tories have legalised suppression.

 

The ratio for those is favour of reversing Brexit is very close to two to one now.

 

This is where Braverman wants to send vulnerable people.
