You pay for their club with you and your children’s hunger, cold, financial stress and poverty.
“Do you work in business?!” Sunak certainly does, he vaguely resembles a politician.
Smug cunt.
Never waste a crisis
Blue Horseshoe loves Moderna… put all your clients on it.
Breaking news: Investment firm makes money.
Jesus christ this sub is dogshit.
I imagine that explaining conflicts of interest to a tory politician must be similar to showing westworld androids pictures of the real world.
“Sunak-linked” – a business he left ten years ago.
“pandemic profits” – invested in the business that made the most effective vaccine, but, tellingly for this story, the one that the UK used the least out of the “big three”. If there was corruption here wouldn’t Sunak have made sure Moderna was at the top of the list?
But anyway, this is an outrage for some reason. Thank god we have Jo Maugham, with a bit of luck he’ll make sure that no government ever tries to buy vaccines in a pandemic ever again…
…wait hang on, are we sure this is a good line of attack?
Where is the £700bn the government has handed out since Covid????
Crisis politics is all the Tories know.
If it ain’t raiding the public purse, it’s cost of living.
If it’s not cost of living, it’s the vaccine
If its not the vaccine, it’s covid
If it’s not covid, it’s brexit
If it’s not brexit, it’s Scottish independence
If it’s not independence, it’s austerity
If it’s not austerity, it’s the recession
And on and on and on
That’s so lovely, I was worried about the Hedge’s, good to have a place for the hogs to sleep.
That’s what some people do not get…
If a policy fills someone in favour’s pockets to the tune of X millions at the cost of X BILLIONS to the country: it’s a good trade.
Everyone’s getting money, but me. I need to get into politics….
The fund profited from holdings in Moderna, which were barely used for vaccines in the UK?
This doesn’t exactly seem scandalous
All politicians should have to declare all ties, employment, investments, tax returns etc onto a public register before entering public service.
And lobbying should be publicly declared, with an independent monitoring body to oversee. Any act must be assessed according to a register of lobbying.
This independent body should be part of the judiciary, with people appointed akin to jury duty.
We cannot keep relying on an increasingly right wing, and therefore corrupt media to oversee the political system. Let’s not forget, it’s not an abstract process, it’s the management of the collective resources of our nation we all pay into.
Most investment funds have had a great few months, not surprising given the stock market is hovering at record highs and global post-pandemic issues are gradually sorting themselves out.
On the news, when they report on how well the markets did that day, the news channels are actually applauding the success of such companies, not individually but collectively, in case this wasn’t obvious. This is then perceived as a good thing by the viewers.
