I predict a slap on the wrist. Then he’ll join Michelle Mone on her yacht for a party next weekend before being elevated to the House of Lords in a couple of years. Oh, and Sunak might voice his disapproval between helicopter trips.
And if they did it, the Tory government will decide what punishment to hand out to a Tory minister spending taxpayers money to help the Tories.
Oh yes, I predict harsh punishments /s
A Tory would never misuse public money in such a way….
The counter is once again back to 0 days since last Tory MP caught misusing taxpayer money.
I’m surprised there is any trouble at this. But the Tories did it in 2015 as well.
A lot of comment here saying he’ll get off scot free, but I think this looks like curtains for matey here: the investigation and article are very detailed, and it looks like this is the Sunday Times’ big story. I can’t see an unpopular government, already laden with accusations of corruption, wanting anything to do with someone who’s been caught squarely with his hand in the till.
For spending For spending For spending???
For stealing taxpayers cash and using it to get elected! Which helped to win over an honest candidate.
What happens to people that steals money?
Prison.
Our democracy is failing badly. This is something you see in third world countries. I suspect he will apologise for the error and sunak will claim the matter is closed
Another day, another report of Tories ripping the tax payer off
