About this deal

My first job there was to analyse the Japanese economy. Japan had just reached the end of what was often called its ‘Lost Decade’. We now talk about Japan’s ‘Lost Decades’ - 30 years of stagnant growth. Under Keir Starmer’s leadership, Labour has changed, but so too have the Conservatives. The Conservatives once called themselves the party of business. That’s a distant memory.

The Conservatives have become the party of high taxation because they are the party of low growth,” she said. And explaining what she meant by “lost decade”, she said: Reeves accused the Conservatives of being “the party of high taxation because they are the party of low growth”.This is an unpretentious murder mystery B movie and a rather effective one as well. There is comedy, mystery and plenty of suspects. Sylvester does well in keeping his motives mysterious. The Treasury chief secretary, Simon Clarke, has said it would “absolutely be wrong” for government whips to threaten to withdraw constituency funding if MPs did not support the prime minister. In this excerpt from Hansard in January 1981, Campbell-Savours recalled the meeting with MacGregor, who had taken issue with his criticisms in parliament of British Steel. The Labour peer and QC Dale Campbell-Savours points out that the parliamentary authorities have previously investigated threats to withhold funds from an MP. Jewell said she has uncovered evidence that Tory constituencies were prioritised over less affluent Welsh areas for receiving funds through the community renewal fund, and that this, alongside other publicly known examples, constitutes enough evidence to warrant an inquiry.

Reeves started her speech saying it was “particularly fitting to welcome” Christian Wakeford, the Tory MP for Bury South who defected to Labour on Wednesday. She said: “Christian, like so many others, sees that our country needs Keir Starmer’s leadership and a Labour government now more than ever.” And their failure to put the national interest above the interests of their friends and donors, utterly removed from the lives of working people. She emphasised Labour’s climate investment pledge of 28 billion for each year of the decade “to ensure the industries and jobs of the future are found all across Britain”. There, they meet Markham (Alexander Gauge) and his two associates, an elderly Eastern European doctor (Hugo Schuster) and a sharp-tongued American (John Arnatt), also a Polish maid (Ingeborg von Kusserow) and a seedy, spying butler (Denis Shaw). After some sparring from Jimmy, Carol agrees to pay the money, but is unable to withdraw it from her bank until morning. The pair must remain until then and, with the windows electronically secured, there is no way to escape. During the night, Markham is murdered, and the killer could only have been someone staying at the house...It’s either something he can substantiate, or it isn’t. I think that’s the point. And I simply need to see any evidence that that has in fact occurred. I think we have to accept objectively here that Mr Wakeford is not entirely a neutral source on these matters, having made the decision that he has. Campbell-Savours says the privileges committee ruled in his favour. MacGregor went on to become the head of the National Coal Board during the miners’ strike. He died in 1988. So, by now you should already understand the reason why I remained unnoticed until this very moment… They both engage with Markham and his associates. The house has a butler who likes to listen in through the keyhole. Later that night Markham is found dead. Both Jimmy and Carol are suspects.

He claimed that MacGregor had verbally threatened to withhold money from a steelworks in his Workington constituency. Rachel Hall here taking over from Andrew Sparrow for the rest of the afternoon. I’ll be focussing on the fallout of the Wragg revelations, while also keeping you updated with the other key developments in Westminster, including any important updates on coronavirus. If there’s anything I’ve missed, do send it over to [email protected]. On the wider whipping system he said there was “obviously a legitimate difference between trying to persuade people to support key policy and doing something which obviously would involve misuse of public funds in that way”.

The Conservatives as the party of business is a “distant memory”, the shadow chancellor has claimed, arguing that Labour’s plan for the country is “proudly pro-worker and proudly pro-business”.

It would absolutely be wrong and, look, the reality is that my experience as a minister is, of course, that that is not a tactic that I’ve ever seen or heard of being deployed and the wider reality, of course, is that we also have a civil service, we have our officials who are, of course, precisely in place to make sure that in all funding allocations there is due process and proper rigour. The Guardian’s home affairs editor Rajeev Syal has done some research and found that there is a precedent for parliamentary authorities investigating threats to withhold funds from MPs if they vote certain ways. The shadow chancellor, Rachel Reeves, accused the Conservatives of no longer being the party of business given that they had presided over a “ lost decade” of low growth. Plaid Cymru MS Delyth Jewell is calling for an inquiry into the revelation that the government threatened to withhold funds for a school unless MP Christian Wakeford voted a certain way.Sajid Javid said the partygate scandal had been “damaging to our democracy”, and defended the lifting of mask rules in schools since it is “harder to teach children” if they wear them. Anyone with any substantive evidence to substantiate that kind of allegation should go to the relevant authorities. The Radio Times wrote: "Not one of [Maurice Elvey's] best efforts. We could do with more surprises, but the pace is unrelenting and there are typically solid performances from Mary Germaine, William Sylvester and John Arnatt." [6] DO NOT PAY THE RANSOM! And more importantly DO NOT REPLY, because sometimes a scammer will escalate if you reply . If they really had a video or picture of you they will at least show some proof like a screenshot. If they allege that they have your corporate, personal or health information they should have shown a sample of it as well. The question is: why is a country with such rich resources not seeing that potential realised? Why are so many working people here in Bury and all across the country not feeling the benefits?
