Disgraceful, and Gordon Brown should be called out over it…

Absolute master stroke by the Tories getting that weasel faced little prick onto I’m a celebrity, with his fake half arsed apologies and “I’m a real human, don’t be nasty to me” shizz.
The demographic of the viewers is just who they need to trick yet again, and I hope to god people aren’t fooled by any of it.
ITV and the wider media should be ashamed of themselves. If politics washing, PR spinning garbage that’s on tv every night and also getting printed in or aired on many other media outlets - absolutely disgraceful.
My thoughts are with anyone who lost friends or relatives due to this man and this governments ineptitude, carelessness, corruption and cruelty.

Surely you mean the procurement staff at the MOD? and the Sir Humphrey who was supposed to be supervising them.

The MoD are useless at procurement and programme oversight. However it doesn’t help when the government play silly buggers with the funding either….
“ Another hindrance to the procurement process was the siphoning off of the £5 billion FRES Budget by the then Labour Government to suit jobs in Scotland and Gordon’ Brown’s constituency in particular. Atkins were given a £360 million contract, seen by some insiders ‘as a reason to kill FRES.’ It did and all the FRES Money was wasted as well as causing contract delays until 2010. If contracts are killed, key personnel move to companies where there is lucrative defence work, thus enabling promotion and bonuses. The FRES cancellation caused a massive brain drain of industry expertise and at the same time DE&S lost key subject matter experts. Those officers involved in FRES either retired, left the Army or gained promotion to another post. The lack of cohesion between customer and supplier was outlined in a previous NAO Report, causing contract delays and cost increases.”

I must have missed that honeymoon.
Who ever met Liz Truss and thought, "yup, that's someone I want in charge of trade deals"

Coughing up well after the fact is rather scummy revisionism. It needed screaming at the time instead of all the congratulations and back slapping they engaged in. Same issue over and over, same lack of accountability and responsibility. The poison is now so total that organ failure is inevitable. The sick man of once Europe. Got the big calls right...

Telling the truth instead of lying.... inconceivable for the Con party.

Is this the place to moan about Hancock? Cos I'm going to.
Just seen with my actual eyeballs that we should separate "Hancock the man from Hancock the Health Secretary". Like he's Morrissey.
Morrissey wrote the "Queen is Dead" one of the greatest albums ever written, Hancock mightve done "Your Nan is Dead" but that is nowhere near enough for him to get penance from him being paid vast sums of money to go camping.
It saddens me just how easy the general public are kidded by the attempted humanisation of this absolute lizard. The general public genuinely is like cattle.

Wholeheartedly agree.
I knew it as soon as I saw his name was mentioned regarding the programme. I’m not having that it was just his idea. This was likely planned carefully by several people.
