Blair said
on BBCnewsHD
said on this it is also a Pandemic time.


[Boris Johnson assured Sir James Dyson his
employees would not have to pay extra tax
if they came to the UK to make ventilators
during the pandemic.
Sir James, whose firm is now based in Singapore,
wrote to the Treasury to ask for
no change in tax status for staff.
But in text messages sent
in March 2020 - seen by the BBC - Sir James then
went directly to the PM,
with Mr Johnson replying: "I will fix it."]

[The government said it did everything
it could to get the right equipment.
And Sir James said it was
"absurd to suggest that the urgent
correspondence was anything other
than seeking compliance with rules"
and that his company did not
receive "any benefit from the project".

Labour called the revelations "jaw-dropping",
with shadow business minister Lucy Powell
telling the BBC: "Frankly it stinks that a
billionaire businessman can text the
prime minister and get an immediate
response and, apparently,
an immediate change in policy."]

I had a feeling Cummings would start to expose the failings of this PM.
I didn't have to wait long.

Wtf I didn't even know that bit

The gumption of BoJo though. If it was something like "we really need a huge amount of ventilators, get them to us by X Date and there's a big fat payday coming your way" would be ... Still stinking, but if it resulted in a load of ventilators becoming available, it might have been something where we could hold our nose and begrudgingly overlook it ... but blatantly saying in black and white that he'd fix tax "problems" ?

Just one of many things that if it has come from anyone with an atom of integrity they'd have slunk off long ago once it came to light ... But not our BoJo.
