Another 'error' over housing by a Labour cabinet member.

[Knave of Hearts]

She inherited a poisoned chalice. Good on her for being prepared to take it on.

These figures make me laugh.
Italian people would be very glad if their politicians stole only such sums ..

I remember one Russian Oligarch saying that he was amazed how cheap it was to buy political influence in the UK.

Yawn

No, they were elected out. Pretty big difference.

Starmer rules out investigation after Reeves admits rental 'mistake'

The PM says an investigation is not "necessary" as the chancellor admits "error" when renting out home.

Are they really that thick? Who the F advises these shysters?

A tiny administrative error, nothing to see here

I just wondered, have any more Reform leaders been caught taking Russian bribes this week?

Funny how the people gave em 14 years to decide

Yet those same people are complaining Labour are failing after a year

If Labour had have campaigned on a "We won’t do nothing other than blame the other lot" instead of "We'll put it right from the get go" do you think people would have voted for them?

No

That's the problem with our 1st past the post politics.

But if they are doing nothing then how come they are getting that wrong ?

I dunno whether to answer you because you once gave me an answer I didn’t like. That’s what we do now, isn’t it?

I'd be more concerned if someone in charge of the entire economy was spending any attention whatsoever on such trivialities.
That's what we have depts, assistants, advisors for.

Do you not think that these people should set higher standards when in office?

Especially as they are often responsible for seeing the laws

Which is not the same as knowing it all.

That's why the transaction was delegated.

And I stand by my thoughts in #9 of this thread.




Companies have "pre-pack" arrangements, so that they can fold, flip, and restart over a matter of hours.
It's SOP in some sectors.

So why can't our civil service have the same pre-pack arrangements, to stop these oversights once and for all?

Are they utterly inept, or is it a deliberate decision to leave pitfall after pitfall, to catch out people and generate some deflectionary smoke?

You would have thought that the “husband” would have been across this every day, to ensure it was done. It’s not like he’s short of brain cells.

I would have thought that having the licence should have been in place before the tenant moved in, like the requirement for a gas safety check or an EICR

And then she poured gallons more of poison into the situation

 

[Brigadier]

You would, because you've decided on the guilt from the outset, and have been looking for the "evidence" ever since.

No need to reply

And you ok with bullying and lies ? Turn a blind eye to them and it's ok ?
