Government Watch - 2

A bit sloppy, wouldn't you say?

This was Nadine Dorries.
She has admitted to breaking data protection.
Glad she's not my MP.

Kangaroo court again.

It is definately a case of scapegoating. Anyone else would be praised for whistleblowing, and remember it was only after green has been allegedly accused of groping that the other stuff came out. National interest? I should say so.

Or there is stuff on their own computer

The problem is, whenever I hear of another Tory minister standing up for him, I just picture an ever bigger group of men standing round his desk, nudging and winking.

If he didn't do it himself, he should definitely know who did.

It's worrying that they are now going after the policemen who gave the information.
To my mind, it is definitely in the public interest.

I might add that IT staff do not have access to your password. It was all done remotely with my permission, whilst I sat watching the computer take on a life of its own, but absolutely no one had access without my say so under any circumstances.

Are you suggesting grumppa that Green would not have been aware that pornography had been down loaded onto his computer!! That stretches credulity too much.

I expect that Green's parliament computer was regularly accessed by the House's IT staff without his bothering too much about security.

I remember two women members of my team coming to me to complain that they had found a load of pornographic literature on their computers, which it turned out had been put there by one of the IT people. Which is why it is very hard to determine that Green was aware of what was on his computer. And what was on other MPs' computers?

I might add it would have been a discipline offence - and rightly so- if I had broken any one of those rules. Dismissal if used for such a serious thing as browsing pornography.

I would be a bit miffed if I thought that any confidential information about me was able to be accessed by anyone other than my MP, and in fact I think it should be a serious offence.

Yes! Of course. When I was at work, I changed my password every month, and if I left my desk logged off. No one had access to my computer. No one had access to my password.

Re Damien Green:
Isn't it worse if it was not him looking at the porn? That would mean that he was letting other people use his computer without any idea what they were doing on it.

700000! Too many zeros.

So as a direct result of this evil government’s austerity programme

7000000 more children and pensioners driven into poverty.

Bottom of every list as well, without being robbed of £2 million by a tax fraudster.

Just in case you can't see it.

Also what is this rubbish letting Virgin Health sue several Health boards for not giving them contracts? I thought you bid for a contract and either got it or not - other businesses do it all the time and cannot sue because they were not as good in some way as another bidder.

I presume you mean the article, and not just the photo, Nandalot.
Yes, isn't it?
Why have there been so many reorganisations?
The 2013 one was said to be so big you could see it from space.

Thanks for the link DJen. Really scary.

Why is Hunt being allowed to get away with this, when not even trump can manage to change Obamacare into the private system he wants without parliament giving its agreement.?

He seems to be the only frontbencher who is not involved in Brexit, probably because this is taking up all his time.
It's evil.
Nobody voted for him to do this to our NHS.

I think it's a bit like the Pope going to Miramar Jen. When little is possible because of those in government you do what you can where you can so people don't feel abandoned. When what you do becomes a sticking plaster to improve general opinion of that government while achieving nothing concrete, sadly, you have to give up.

Government says it's making good progress. It must be doing it in secret, then, like Brexit, as the commission didn't know about it.

He's on Andrew Marr today to explain a bit more.

I could never understand why Milburn worked for the government. Same with Frank Field.
I think the government response must be on a loop, as it's the same for any situation. "We have more to do." Not kidding.

Theresa May under new pressure as her Social Mobility Tzar and his team quit, accusing her of failing in her pledge to build a fairer Britian. Alan Milburn, chair, said he and his fellow commissioners where walking out.

Alan Milburn says he sees "precisely no chance of making progress", accusing the Government of abandoning Brexit voters.

Tory deputy, former Cabinet minister Baroness Shephard is also leaving.

Blow for PM as social mobility tsar Alan Milburn quits over 'unfair' Britain
