Barryd999 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 It is good news but what does it mean? What are the consequences? Do we see heads on spikes, sackings or do they just crack on regardless like they did when Johnson was found guilty of lying to the Queen and illegally closing down Parliament?

John52 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Barryd999 - 2021-02-19 2:26 PM What are the consequences? 1) £200k+ of our money spaffed away on legal charges to defend the guilty. If you or I were taken to court for breaking the law we would have to pay our own costs and theirs. Then we would have to pay a penalty on top. 2) Another Government and Media attack on the judiciary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malc d Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Barryd999 - 2021-02-19 2:26 PM It is good news but what does it mean? What are the consequences? It means that when the government handed out millions of pounds last year for PPE etc - they were legally obliged to tell us all who was getting the money, and how much. They were obliged by law to let us all know within 30 days of the contract - as reported on Sky news. There won't be any consequences although they may be pushed into grabbing some of the loot back from people who failed to come up with the goods they were paid for. It's clear that they had to get the stuff as fast as possible ( that will be their defence ) - but that is not disputed. What they did ' wrong ' was not publishing details of the contracts afterwards ( maybe it was too embarrassing for them ? ) :-| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CurtainRaiser Posted February 20, 2021 Author Share Posted February 20, 2021 Matt Hancock broke the law to bung public money to his mates and he still has a job? I know when I was a barman during my university years I would have been sacked for giving free drinks to my mates. One rule for us. In a way I wouldn't mind if the bungs they gave to their chums had led to our frontline workers having access to good PPE, but it didn't, it was squandered on newly formed companies based in offshore islands siphoning off millions and buying some cheap and ineffective Chinese crap leading to excess deaths, which I know Dave is very concerned about. Most of it is unfit for use. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/12/18/thousands-shipping-containers-surplus-ppe-moved-railway-station/ Anyway I'm off for a paddle.
