Reminder how Nicola Sturgeon's political career was ended over something her ex-husband might have done but men like this keep on getting away with it....

I’m really looking forward to ITV dramas about the #CladdingScandal, #WaterCompaniesCorruption and the #SewageCrisis they’ve inflicted on Britain, and of course #CovidCorruption including #ToryPartyDonors’ access to lucrative #VIPLanes.
Yeah. As this seems to be how we go about getting justice in this country now, I’m really looking forward to some actors with a good script waking up the public to all this illegal behaviour.
I’m not sure the #UKGovernment is.

Many, many people should be in jail for the blatant #corruption during the pandemic with #VipLanes and #TestAndTrace being just the tip of the iceberg.
Those people should include serving cabinet ministers and the PM too

#Ministers’ procurement bill a ‘charter for #cronies ’, says #UKLabour
#Rayner, said: “This govt is presiding over a #procurement racket at the expense of the British people. Under #ToryOCG cronies have never had it so good.
They cut murky deals in the dark with their mates using taxpayers’ money & this procurement bill would hand them a golden ticket to do it all over again. This bill is a charter for cronies."

@goodlawproject has the public been defrauded regarding the PPE #viplanes ..? Should there be an enquiry into the public finances wasted during #Covid-19?

Why doesn’t Mr Integrity @rishisunak@twitter.com PAY workers decent wages rather than trying to ban strikes and using us as weaponry.

This is the real "They partied while others died" story.
The government get away with it because it's more complex than tales about lockdown parties.
