That's weird. There was a bloke called Robert Jenrick who saved a pornographer friend millions in taxes https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/robert-jenrick-richard-desmond-housing-tory-donor-westferry-a9631876.html

Couldn't be the same man, surely?

@blingoali

I know this will come as a shock Ali, but yes, yes it is the same man. The same man who was caught in a property scandal when he approved a deal for a major donor to the Tory party - once a scumbag always a scumbag or a Tory as it’s known

Robert Jenrick faced controversy over his approval of a £1 billion housing development in East London, which was deemed unlawful due to the timing of the decision that favored a Conservative donor, Richard Desmond. The situation raised concerns about potential bias and led to legal challenges from local authorities.

@TJ1001
Well! Thank goodness I live in soon-to-be-Reform Norfolk!

No grifters, charlatans or self-serving scumbags in that party...

[EDITED TO ADD]
Sorry, completely forgot Jenrick and the rest of Truss's cabinet had joined Reform on a bargain-bucket free transfer.

Scrub that last comment 🙄

@blingoali

Reform - The retirement home for failed Tories / we need to keep reminding everyone of that - The nation overwhelmingly voted to bin the Tories, including Norfolk - we had 14 years of utter crap with the most corrupt and incompetent Tory bunch in history- and now they’re all at reform / should be easy for Starmer to hammer that home, but people have short memories- we need to hammer home every chance we get.
