She is right, they don't act in the own interests. They act in the interests of the highest bidder.

In the current climate, that's the Unite union. Labour gives them tax payers money disguised as training funds, then that give it back to Labour as a donation.

In a statement to the House of Commons on Monday, Mrs Harman said investigations by the relevant departments had found "no improper influence on government policy or ministerial decisions."

It might actually make it harder for him to cash in in future. He will be known as Byers the Bullsh*tter. ;)

I know, but they basically had a ridiculously small enquiry in a day, lies or not :lol:

Mandy says he didn't 'recall' such a meeting, and so on...

I agree it is very quick, but maybe they rang around and found that no one could corroborate a single fact. Though Tesco and Network Rail and London cab drivers probably should sue him for defamation. I do not know of any London cabbies making £3000 a day. :shock:
