  1. Post Office scandal expert Moorhead predicts solicitor strike-offs Richard Moorhead, professor of law and professional ethics at the University of Exeter and a prolific writer on the Horizon scandal, said it was ‘highly likely’ that people would be removed from the profession. He added that he also expects one or two individuals to face criminal prosecutions. He was ‘cautiously supportive’ of the Solicitors Regulation Authority's position of waiting until the public inquiry has finished before taking any decisions on disciplinary proceedings, saying the regulator has been doing a lot of investigatory work behind the scenes. But Moorhead said the SRA should provide ‘greater clarity and detail’ about what it is doing currently.

  4. and more .. As thames water pushes to further rip off captive customers, not get fined for it, and allow more dividends .. for little more than 'aspirations' to do better More detail comes out of the literally and figuratively sh** companies apparently shunting money out of the regulated business to profit/bonus/dividend generating unregulated side companies "Accounts filed at Companies House show : (Kennets) accounts, filed more than 12 months after the end of Kennet’s financial year, showed that the company made a £1.15m pre-tax profit for the year to 31 March 2023, up from £374,000 a year earlier. Revenues rose to £1.6m in 2023 – up from £1m in "Kennet Properties paid out a £14.5m dividend in the year to 31 March 2023" "Kennet ?takes on? land no longer needed by Britain’s biggest water company before developing it and selling it on, typically for housing or commercial premises.

  5. So 1. Doctors examine their patients and find them unfit for work 2. A whole new level of administration and examination is added to redo the doctors job on top of the doctors job - probably MORE THAN doubling the cost (to the taxpayer) of the process - with all the extra money for all the extra processes no doubt going to the private sector ie Crapita rather than giving extra funding to GPs - and probably actually coming out of a reduced GP budget 3. With the tories no doubt lying claiming this is extra money to the NHS to reduce waiting lists and take the burden off GPs It is of course just another dogwhistle - although I'm sure they would be happy to shunt more taxpayer money to hunts pals if they get away with it
  6. Liz Truss says Tories are part of a Blairite attempt to silence her. Reform UK leader Richard Tice said the Conservative Party is 'socialist' and suggested Rishi Sunak is not a 'real conservative'. .. says the definitely NOT real Conservatives Lets also hope that Starmer implements a clause where bringing the UK into disrepute, or breaching the requirements of ex UK PMs results in the permanent withdrawal of ALL UK taxpayer funding of them
  7. "Lowest CON % ever recorded in 45 years of Ipsos polling, - a record last broken in the previous poll." as Truss bemoans only 10 years to save her hair and makeup - she already lost the UK its shirt and vest Liz Truss fumes about 'having to do her own hair and make-up' while PM WWW.THELONDONECONOMIC.COM This is, objectively, very funny: No matter how bad you thought Liz Truss' new book would be, it somehow appears to be worse.
  8. So they seem to be deliberately fouling Britain - not 'just negligently Need to be in jail alongside the PO crims, and rabidly corrupt MPs
  9. Well, we know it seems that the poops and others just use there MP position mainly to generate funds from their 'outside' lol interests Lets hope labor BAN second jobs for Mps - all second jobs - then create a truly independent expenses 'police' with real powers Tip of the iceberg: "A cohort of Conservative MPs standing down before the next election have netted jobs worth millions of pounds and have taken dozens of all-expenses-paid trips funded by foreign governments and lobbyists, the Observer can reveal." so far - "top of the list was former justice secretary Brandon Lewis, who has taken on five new part-time roles worth £410,000 a year alongside his commitments as an MP.

  10. Nope But lets not forget that labor has been a Brexit Party since at least Corbyn - just with a more competent and meaningful agenda
  11. and as expected UK rejects mobility agreement with Europe to help young people travel and live abroad WWW.INDEPENDENT.CO.UK Labour also rejected the possibility of an EU-wide scheme for young people a Government spokesperson said there was no interest from the UK side, adding that “free movement (for UK plebs) within the EU was ended”.
  12. and more immediate issues WT* is the UK doing. Ukraine needs these funds and weapons NOW Lets sincerely hope this isnt another Tory VIPal skimming issue. MoD accused of ‘go-slow’ with half of £900m Ukraine fund unused | Defence policy | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM Delays mean just £404m of the money donated by nine countries has been committed or spent
