Could make a rule that anything not done through official channels and is now lost/deleted will be presumed to be dodgy and will be prosecuted as such.You’d hope there’s a full paper trail of all key decisions, however, wasnt it hancock who deleted some of his emails/what’s apps about certain contracts ? It’s totally unprofessional. In my old job where we had to file note any key decisions, strategy etc we’d have been slaughtered if the regulator came in and we said sorry, it’s on what’s app and I’ve deleted it.
Not sure why Sunak doesn’t want to deliver up his. Obviously there’s someone on the other end of each and every message which the inquiry will pick up so wondering if it’s non covid related ?!
I remember when Grendel was telling me that this was the guy to listen to on Russia and Ukraine. Seems like they’d get on.

I wonder if the is referring to Crispin Blunt or if these are fresh allegations against a different MP

I've only seen this guardian analysis of it but what Starmer says here sounds OK:
www.theguardian.com
Keir Starmer dismisses king’s speech as ‘exercise in economic miserabilism’ – as it happened
Labour party leader criticises speech as ‘admission that government has no faith in Britain’s ability to avert decline’

You can say what you want about the kings speech today but when you are having to include bills about banning rickshaws from central London to fluff out your king speech you really have nothing left to give
Totally out of ideas. I’ve always been sympathetic to Sunak as he was dealt a turd hand from Johnson and Truss but he needs to come up with better than that. Also keeping all the old boys/girls in the cabinet rather than just using it as an opportunity to get a load of new blood in and clear the shit out* he’s not helped himself.
*this maybe also helped with his argument that he could be considered as the change candidate

He’s over a barrel. No support really in the wider PCP, got in on a technicality in effect and by trying to keep the right inside has ruined he rep as a steady pair of hands. I’m not even sure who he is targeting. Brexit ultras think he stabbed boris in the back and has fucked Brexit, old school Tories don’t like his handling of the economy and general nastiness. He’s basically there as a political bullet sponge until they’re forced to have an election.

Just watched Starmers speech in parliament today and although I’ve been critical of late of him I’ve got to hand it to him, he sounded like a PM in waiting today. In stark contrast watching Sunak listening to it he had the air of someone who’s already contemplating what his next job will be. The Tory benches as a whole was very muted for the most part, it’s was like they were at a funeral.

Yes, another Truss where in a year's time the cretinous media will speculate on whether she was right

Absolutely what she wanted. Appalling that she has stirred up hatred and potential for disorder for the sake of her political ambitions.

The main problem is it's easier for mental ideas to gain credence in opposition, when you don;t actually have to try them out!
Total loose canon. Sunak should never have appointed her in the first place and had sufficient justifications after her previous misdemeanours. Said before and I’ll say it again but his best chance would’ve been a full clearout and start again with new blood especially if he’s going for candidate of change
By trying to placate the right of the party he’s blown it. Should’ve said you either support me or you’re out, like Starmers did to some extent

Yeah, I suspect public opinion of Sunak at the beginning was boring but competent... and that gave him a fighting chance after Johnson and Truss!
All this witchhunting nonsense though, it doesn't sit well.
I mean, WTF ?! A group of mosques calling for the removal of a democratically elected* party leader ?! And how will the removal of the opposition leader ensure they get an ‘immediate and unconditional ceasefire’ ?!
This just gets more bizarre by the day
*well, democratically ish by members and unions
She’s a dangerous nutter. I don’t think it’s probably him deep down but he decided to dance with the devil
