1. ***The Telegraph reports:***

   A health minister attempted to block a full public inquiry into suspicious deaths in mental health hospitals, The Telegraph can reveal.

   Leaked WhatsApp messages reveal that [Nadine Dorries](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/nadine-dorries/), who was a Conservative health minister under Boris Johnson, sent a message to Matt Hancock, the then health secretary, saying that she was “picking off” families whose relatives had died as a way to ensure a “full public inquiry” into “suspicious” deaths was not launched.

   Ms Dorries told Mr Hancock that the mother of a young man who was found dead at a mental health unit in Essex was “calling for a full public inquiry” but “we aren’t going there”.

   “I’m picking off the other families and speaking to them one by one to get them onside to isolate her. But it’s incredibly sensitive and difficult as all of these young boys died in very suspicious circumstances,” she wrote.

   Mr Hancock responded that he would “back your judgment on all these sorts of cases”.

2. And this sorry cow had the audacity to say Angela Rayners silly dancing in Ibiza was “unbecoming of her office” or whatever. What a miserable awful human.

3. Like a blue print for how to be –

   ‘insincere, with faux concern while shifting away from any accountability’

   while using all the traits of Machiavellianism.

   It’s typical politician behaviour!

4. Would this be the former Telegraph darling and rent a quote gobshite Nadine Dorries?
