Her husband was on as well but he seemed as baffled as everyone else. I don't think he has her bullshit skills. He was a bit "well of course we made money out of it what else do you expect".

I think the only truthful thing she said was "they all knew about it and didn't care", which is entirely believable because there was so much similar grift going on. I mean maybe individual people didn't know about that case but I mean you can't keep track of all the crooks can you.

60 million quid. For making a few phone calls to a dealer in Hong Kong and setting up a shell company to cash the cheques. It would take me 2,000 years to earn that much money. Longer in fact, because I don't live in a PO box on the Isle of Man so I would have to pay tax.

Well thats true to form though not necessarily one of my issues. That stinking good for nothing low life made £60 million out of a global crisis.
Talk about parasite.

I've got zero sympathy for her whatsoever, but Mone seems to be the sacrificial lamb.
£9Bn wasted, rampant profiteering, extensive evidence of government ministers pulling levers for their mates who became, overnight, PPE specialists etc but Mone seems to the one offered up to take the fall. Clearly, she's staggeringly stupid enough and greedy enough and therefore fits the bill perfectly.
The real failure was the failure of the government to take control of companies and put them to work producing what was needed and to therefore control price and supply through national control. The failure to control or intervene in the market was the real crime.
But, in the absence of a coherent operation to get the rest of the £9Bn back with the threat of criminal charges for all profiteers and a detailed independent investigation into the conduct of government ministers this looks, to me, like Mone is going to carry the can and be a symbolic offering rather than a precursor to proper action.
I couldn’t care less what happens to her, but what about the rest of the grasping greedy cunts?

If they are using her as the sacrificial goat, it surely has some risks for rat-boy?

She isn't going down without a fight. Wonder how many she can take with her ?

I like how the Graun has woven this thread into a completely unconnected news story (about a proposal to digitise wills and destroy the originals):
Ministry of Justice plan to destroy historical wills is ‘insane’, say experts
Department hopes to save £4.5m a year by digitising – then binning – about 100m wills that date back 150 years

Indeed. But, judging by the interview yesterday she'd be useless at hitting a cows arse with a banjo let alone bringing down her venal, but slippery, colleagues. The allegation that she made - that a bribe was suggested to make the NCA investigation go away would be explosive if true and proven. But even this lot coudn't be that stupid...could they?

It's like watching the previously presumed-dispatched henchman reappear out of the dark, grimly holding on to the legs of the duplicitous villain who threw them under the bus to slow down the good guy in the first place, as they desperately try to hold on to a fast-disintegrating rope over a dark abyss, the boss-hood's trousers slowly sliding down his thighs, offering the choice between humiliation or demiseShe isn't going down without a fight. Wonder how many she can take with her ?

Like crabs in a bucket.
The problem is, she's telling the absolute truth, now anyway, they all knew about it. My own boss at the time was doing the same shit and is probably shitting himself now. He managed to get his own PPE stuff buried to p14 from p1 in the papers because of his media connections but im sure it'll come back to bite him on the arse (he's in the house of lords too, also put there by Cameron like Money) although he 'stood down' during Covid as he's clearly a little brighter than Mone). And yeh, everybody knew what was going on. He also had a hotline to Gove. It was well dodgy.

I mean why was there a 'VIP lane' in the first place if not to help the tories give sacks full of public cash to their mates with minimal due process? Why didn't the DoHSC just hire half a dozen people to ring round suppliers and put in orders directly?

It's Squid Games for rich cunts and the grand prize at the end will hopefully be a punch in the face
As far as I understand it, from my boss's position, he's always taken the same line as Mone that was doing the people a service. He called Hancock/Gove and recommended one of our clients (I worked in corporate PR) as a supplier as the country was in need, and hey presto, they got the contract and we got our retainer with them extended. Boiling it down like. That's what happened.
Why she did that interview is bonkers. Who was advising her.
