Pestfix contract to deliver £350m of PPE with one contract 75% paid up front

[SirGalahad]

You cannot defend this level of highly irregular contract awarding with such loose terms.

Shame on those defending this behaviour - but you will be along soon.

FACTS ARE CONSPIRACIES!

Ask the leftist, they'll explain.

Those who cry 'conspiracy theorists' at the drop of the hat tend not to have the intellectual ability to 'follow the money'...

They also tend not to have the intellectual ability to work out that whatever the cause of the latest crisis, there will always be a small minority who will exploit the vast majority

Hint: Remove 'CAPS LOCK' so that you won't appear to be such a 'looney tune '

Ask the leftist

You're behind the times boyo. The right wingers and their white supremacist buddies are engaging massively in conspiracy theory activity. They even give them names like Q Anon and shoite like that.

This is shocking. Are governments around the world handing out multi million pounds contracts to their mates or is it just ours?

Government needs to be more accountable. There should be processes in place to challenge behaviour like this, in court if necessary. Misappropriation of public funds?
You can't just take public money and throw it around willy nilly.

The more they waste, the more people are going to have to pay in taxes in the future. But no doubt if it is a Tory Gov in power in the future, they will blame "unprecedented times of COVID". If it is the opposition in power, the very same Tories will blame that Government for mishandling the public purse.

Government needs to be more accountable.

Covid emergency leglisation has enabled it.

Also this govt are cynically demolishing parliament to remove accountability -SPADS taking control of the cabinet, reducing power of courts and civil service, controlling the media


basically we are being governed by decree
