The biggest problem is that they can't/won't see the wrong in what they're doing.

[royfromaus]

They don't have to...10points clear of Labour.

[gulliver1]

The Tories just have to have their fingers in the till. They just can't help it can they.

And Labour:-

got anything from the last decade, dannyk?

[Gromit]

The Government awarded the Corona tracing app contract to ‘Faculty’ without tendering. They are mates of Cummings.
And when it didn’t work they didn’t get fired, the got paid more money for trying to fix it.

[dannyk13]

jno, I am sure that I could find something, if you wish.

[teacake44]

And it is also being looked into, to whom they awarded contracts too for PPE, companies that completely changed from what they were producing overnight to making PPE? The companies that were making similar products, and were already geared up for making such got ignored?

[Zacs-Master]

Tessa Jowell property remortgage. 2006 cash for honours. Cash for influence 2009. Peter Watt resignation 2007. 2018 Fiona Onasanya convicted of perverting the course of justice for lying to police to avoid a speeding fine.

All Labour sleaze. Pot/kettle.

[jno]

perverting the course of justice isn't sleaze, it's plain criminality; and carefree interpretation of the Commons expenses rules was an all-party affair. But jobs for the boys is a particularly political sort of sleaze.

[royfromaus]

All parties are at it...stop kidding yourselves.

[gulliver1]

Jobs for the boys , Tories come first, Stuff the working class. All come from the "Young Tories " when they attended the Tory school of Radicalisation. Then they grow into old very wealthy Tories , and pass it on to the next generation. It is also known as "The Con Club".

[teacake44]

Were there's muck there's money, and there's plenty of muck in number 10, and there's plenty of money to be made even when they leave. And I must admit all parties are the same.

[dannyk13]

// And I must admit all parties are the same.//
Exactly.

[Mozz71]

I've got to agree with Roy here. Although the T
Tories seem to have mastered sleeze, it's not exclusive to them. No one was better at it than Blair was (of cause he was faux Tory anyway) and if Labour got the chance at government, they'd be just as crooked.

[gulliver1]

This is the new breed of "Tory sleaze" Masterminded in the Dormi-Tories , of Eton, and Boris.s Bullingdon Club.

[Deskdiary]

Denis McShane, David Chaytor, Elliot Morley et al.

Don’t be so naive to think it’s just the Tories.

[cassa333]

These petty childish posts by Canary and Gromit don’t particularly interest me any more because all politicians to one degree or another in one way or another have a finger or toe in a pie.

If what they do is illegal then they should be prosecuted if it is ‘within the bounds’ of the parliamentary rules then change the rules.
