Boris Johnson, former Prime Minister

[tobyjugg2]

Regarding Johnson getting the taxpayer to pay £130,000 for a seemingly selected opinion in his favour on partygate.

Seems his excuse is that its justified that the taxpayer pays as its important to future PM's

... Sooo, ,,,  He must be expecting future Pm's to be corrupt lying ****** sh*ts as well then

- Must admit, seems likely now hes already set the bar that low.

Southern water, the worst performing company according to the Environment Agency, is going to send it debt collectors. This can't go well, can it?

 

An indication of their attitude.

“While we strive to resolve all complaints to our customer’s satisfaction, our complaints procedure has been exhausted in relation to storm overflows and payments for services. We’ll not correspond further on this matter.”

Company will use bailiffs if those protesting against continuing raw sewage discharges continue to hold back payment of bills

 

[dx100uk]

They can't use bailiffs.

 

Only after court and if the court appoint them for non payment and nothing they can do anyway, it's a consumer debt . No right of forced entry

Good point, dx. They either kept quiet about it, or they don't understand.

And they can't cut them off either I don't think.

Southern Water don't appear to be doing very well financially.

 

Owned by Greensands Holding Ltd (  Greensands ? Perhaps they need a new name given the  mixture of colours of pollution caused by the sewage)

I wonder how much the CEO earns?

 

BN, I'm pretty sure you can't cut off someone's water supply.

nope you can't against human rights act.

Isnt Truss getting rid of that in favour of a UK bill of rights ?

 

eg the right for people to be arrested for protesting anything if its loud enough for anyone to hear, or loud enough to impinge on a westminster politicians lunch break

Then investigated for further criminal malfeasance?

"Boris Johnson has told supporters that he will co-operate with a parliamentary inquiry into alleged lies over the Partygate affair."

- but then again he is an unmitigated liar who would impede and shut the investigation down as much as he could

 

"Minister Steve Baker, a supporter of Mr Johnson’s leadership rival Rishi Sunak, this morning warned that the ex-PM’s premiership would “collapse” if he tried to put the issue to a vote, as Conservative MPs would be unwilling to sacrifice their “integrity” to save him."

- unlike with patterson, fracking etc etc - so just another self-serving liar

Well, yes, I dragged you out of your warm bed, in your warm house, that had enough food and some money in the bank

... and threw you into this 20 foot deep half full cesspit,

But look on the bright side. I've thrown you a sock that was dry when I threw it, and its December and raining heavily, so in some considerable time, if you can keep your head above the excrement that long, you may be able to swim to the side and drag yourself out.

Boris Johnson still living in £10,000-per-month accommodation provided by Tory donor, register reveals

Boris Johnson is still having his housing provided by the Bamford family, the latest entry in the Commons register of members’ interests shows.

The former PM has declared receiving accommodation worth £10,000 for himself and his family, covering the month of November, from Lady Carole Bamford.

This is the third month in a row he has declared housing from the Bamfords worth £10,000 a month.

He has also declared two further donations, both for accommodation worth £3,500, from the Bamfords over the autumn.

Lord Bamford, a pro-Brexit Conservative peer who is chair of JCB, has been a generous Tory donor for decades. He and his wife also paid for Johnson’s wedding party at their mansion in the Cotswolds in the summer, with Johnson declaring the gift as being worth £23,853.

Johnson, his wife and their two children, lived in Downing Street and at Chequers during his time as prime minister. Since then he has been living in Bamford accommodation despite owning or part-owning three homes, in London, Oxfordshire and Somerset.

Make a lot of their JCB's in India now dont they?

- laid off UK staff

 

David davis also on payroll as advisor - although undoubtedly on far less 'succor than Johnson

EU still their biggest market.

[tobyjugg2]

i see Johnson is off everywhere grabbing money - except looking out for his constituents interests - for which he continues to be paid and is no doubt claiming expenses.

Why is he not yet kicked out by his constituents, banned from public office, .. and in jail?

It seems that at least one of the highly paid speeches was within the stipulated time laid down by Acoba. Not that Acoba has a lot of clout by the look of things.
