[A minister has resigned at the despatch box
after criticising the government's record on tackling fraud in the coronavirus business schemes. Lord Agnew, who was both a Treasury and Cabinet Office minister, dramatically quit his role in Boris Johnson's government in the House of Lords on Monday afternoon, saying the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy had shown a "lamentable" oversight of COVID loan schemes which has resulted in large amounts of fraud being committed. The peer told the chamber that the Treasury "appears to have no knowledge or little interest in the consequences of fraud to our economy or our society", adding that a mix of "arrogance, indolence and ignorance freezes the government machine".] Rishi Wrote the Debt Off https://news.sky.com/story/treasury-...fraud-12524460 Last edited by arista; 24-01-2022 at 05:11 PM. |

Fraud?
Fraud is highly illegal. I hope someone is being questioned at the Police station as we speak. I'll look forward to seeing what sentence is received for this crime. |
