Patels trip to Africa has just been cut short by a furious PM. As more revelations come out about Priti Patels 12 secret political meetings during her 13 day holiday in Israel. Does she deserve to be sacked for her treachery?

She's awful,should never have been a minister anyway.
Definitely yes for me. She even it seems,set out to deceive the Prime Minister. |

As none of us know anything about what happened yet, not even the prime minister, I'll save my verdict of this woman's career until I know more.

Yes without a shadow of a doubt, she has broken the ministerial code as well as lied through her teeth, the meetings that she had were also at best dubious.
'Of all the meetings that Priti Patel held with Israeli ministers and officials, the meetings with Gilad Erdan, Israel’s public security and strategic affairs minister, are the most unusual and potentially damaging. She met him on her visit to Israel in August, and again in September in London. (See 7.27am.) Erdan, an ambitious and abrasive member of Netanyahu’s own right wing Likud party, is better known for working against the kind of human rights advocates familiar to DfID staffers from their work.' I can't help but think that her meetings are all in preparation for when human rights are no longer a 'thing' in the UK.... :/ https://www.theguardian.com/politics...-politics-live

As far as I know she was discussing monetary aid for the Israeli army to help them deal with with refugees from Syria. The bitch...
And she's Secretary of State for International Development so it's not exactly outside her purview. |

All she was doing was diverting a few quid in the direction of the Israeli army, not sure what the big deal is?

The fact is, she lied to the PM. She's just shown Britain that May can't police her own cabinet. What she discussed in Israel is irrelevant. She misleads the press, she misleads the foreign office and she misleads the prime minister.
I think what happens next reflects on May's suitability to run this country.

All sounds a bit off to me. A lot of meetings to say she was on holiday.
What on earth was she thinking about? I think a little reshuffle should be on the cards. |

I only know as much or as little as the Guardian live link will tell me, which is basically the same as everyone else...including you.

She lied as to saying the Foreign secretary knew beforehand and now it seems has failed to disclose further vital info to her Prime Minister. She cannot be trusted, it would astound me if Mrs May allowed to her to now remain a Minister. |

Was that in reference to the Golan Heights, why would she give money for an area they have no claim to out of interest?

I didn't get anything that's why I'm asking a question. You appear to have gone from knowing nothing to something, I should like to know what and how.

It does indeed, why the subterfuge that's what I don't understand? Why was it said that the PM was unaware initially, the sensitive nature of the discussions into the area the Israeli army has no claim to?
Patel was insistent she was holidaying during these meeting, why do that?... none of this makes any sense :/ Oh.. I think I get it, may sent Priti to do bojos job as she daren't sent bojo! But she didn't want him to know.

Sensational implications of JC story. 1) PM knew about and endorsed Patel freelancing with Israel Gov, despite Downing St denials; 2) & Patel has therefore tainted PM by not following government protocol. This is worse for Patel than PM Tory stooge Peston, Why if the PM knew and endorsed Patel is this worse for Patel?....
