I don’t question that Alison Rose did something wrong.
I question why the PM got involved.
Because we own 39% of NatWest?
We own 100% of the Post Office.
Has the PM told the CEO to pay back bonuses based on false accounts?
Or asked him to resign?
No.
Spot the difference?
Darren Jones MP@darrenpjones
The Post Office said it didn't know that there was false information in its accounts. False information that led to a bonus payment of £170k (on top of a £400k salary) for the CEO alone. Money needed, we were told, to motivate staff engagement with the Horizon scandal inquiry.

The next time someone talks about the UK's 'liberal media establishment' remind them of the time that almost every news organisation in the country spent an entire month talking about little else but Nigel Farage being asked to switch his bank account.

"Phew! That's a nasty leak. Thank goodness it's not at our end of the boat".
An image that's as powerful in the age of the climate crisis as it was in the Great Depression.
Then, as now, "it's not our problem" was a spectacular misjudgement.
Thanks to @DwTenterden for posting

Private equity (PE) owned Asda & Morrisons paid zero corporation tax last yr.
PE business model - low wages, high margins, high leverage, shift profits to affiliates as interest payments, taxes dodged.

Put ULEZ aside. The big news is that tactical voting is here to stay. The British now get in a first past the post voting system best to exercise your second preference and win to get the Tory out than vote a purposeless first preference. The Tories have lost the next election.

This is what leading Brexiter @DanielJHannan told us our lives would look like if we left the EU. Someone should give him a prize for getting every single prediction wrong! 🤣
