  1. She should have done like the Tories and embezzled from this country instead.

  2. See when she applied, she said she had experience in corruption, she just didn’t specify from which side

  3. At this rate the only thing left in that party will be the name of it

  4. “Starmer’s Labour are just Tories with red ties.”

    “Don’t be ridiculous, there is no comparison”

    So I appreciate that the scale of the corruption is much less, but if this is the price of “Electability” then it has cost too much.

  5. This party just keeps on giving

  6. So, they accused her of stealing £3.9bn from Bangladesh nuclear plant construction, and they still managed to build it. Hinkley Point C, which started the same year, is planned to take twice that time to build for triple the cost … maybe we should start looking closer than Bangladesh?

  7. Another labour scandal? Add it to the pile I guess..

  8. If you import large numbers of people from countries with problems with corruption ofc, some of those people are going to have family members involved in embezzlement.
