i can understand that in emergency conditions like we had at the start of the pandemic, that we need to cut through red tape to get things done quicker. However, that doesn't mean that all due process is merrily thrown out the window and contracts be awarded to mates, which clearly went on and is totally corrupt and wrong

He acted unlawfully in his trusted Ministerial position.
Found so by the court and in law.

That's the only relevant fact of this.

I have to express my own disappointment.
I can't understand Starmer and his very low key murmurings on this serious issue.

Had this been Ashworth as Health secretary in a Labour government.
The media and the Cons with their cult hard-line supporters, would be screaming from the rooftops for Ashworth to go, and likely the government too.
Probably rightly so too.

I'm really dismayed at Starmer on this.

he may have a strategy. It will be a much more potent win for labour if they can get his resignation over an inquiry outcome, because there will be an inquiry. If he has already gone the tories would just say ... yeah, he is long gone, move on

Yeah, I can go with that.
Very good point there, thank you.

There's surely no way whatsoever that he could be as poor a leader as Richard Leonard was.
However, the bulk of former Labour votes are as yet still in the SNP fold.

So he has a mountain to climb.

Frank Field said that Rishi's budget was the best he'd ever seen in his life.

Frank is proper Labour, before they became the party of the woke and far-left.

Most of the budget was expected and okay.
However, this NHS pay, well it is really not rise, more a cut, is unforgivable and deplorable.

It is odd isn’t it ?!!

With all this money being thrown around I honestly expected the NHS workers ( hospital workers ) to get a huge rise or at least a substantial one-off cash bonus

This baffles me, zizu. You're old enough to have seen different generations of tories in power, and yet you pretend to be surprised when they give their mates billions and the nurses nothing. Why?

It’s really not your place to doubt my sincerity...

Why would I ‘pretend’ to be surprised or disappointed fgs

As regards your dig at the Tories .. I don’t find them any different to any of the Labour governments over the decades .

They’ve all been inept and corrupt for as long as I can remember

I wasn't doubting your sincerity, I was questioning why, despite the decades of evidence you have before you, you still thought Tories would do right by the NHS and nurses.

I wasn't saying anything about your sincerity or integrity.

Even the last decade alone, tories have been killing folks with austerity, so to even compare with the only labour gov we've had is just factually incorrect, when we now have more food banks in this country than branches of McDonalds.
