As per usual the journalists focus on the personal squabbles not on the policy. Note to the Westminster Bubble Journos - the public are interested in policy not the politicians.
£3 trillion in debt and the first thing they do is start talking about more spending....our political class are clueless. They won't do the obvious things that need doing, instead they just compound the existing problems....
The government took a 'Golden Share' in Royal Mail when the east European oligarch took it over last year. It's absolutely meaningless! They offer these things to maintain control and greed. Nothing's done for the workforce. In fact this is really an insurance against bankruptcy. These parasites will squeeze every penny out for themselves, then hand it to the government when it fails. That's the only reason it's being offered.
Has Darren Jones apologised for sympathising with Peter Mandelson over his firing and lying to the British public about his relationship with Mandelson?
So Jones was tasked with leading and promoting the government’s digital ID scheme but now says it’s unfunded? Strange he waited till sacked to say that.

Would that ‘something’ be Mrs Thatcher?
Also, shouldn't those who, have shown dubious integrity, by cheating on their taxes for example, be excluded?
No?
Then shut the hell up.
