Did anyone read about Michelle Mone? Thought not!

why don't people care?
my severely disabled adult daughter has to rely on social care to meet her needs and all this corruption going on takes away from the most vulnerable
why can people not see that?

I knew about it months ago. I could never work how how she ever managed to become a member of the house of Lords in the first place.

I had read about it. It is strange how things go silent, especially since there is a court case going on about a former SNP minister, that also never seems to get mentioned anywhere. Neither mainstream news nor on here. I am very disappointed if what transpires about Michelle Mone happens to be true. Im assuming there is no court case ongoing. I really don't understand people, are massive salaries not enough?

JaneJudge, oh I do see that. Hence my comment about salaries. People with good jobs have more than enough to live on, while people like yourself struggle. If these allegations are proven, it's very disappointing.

First of all it was her business associates that were accused, so we have to hear the whole story. If she was in any way a guilty party in this, shamefully defrauding people, , I very much hope in cases such as this people already rich and of influence, get lengthy sentences, their assets seized and the money made recouped. The Mail is on their case and they won’t let it go.

Hence my Not another one.

Anyone in Scotland who doesn't know about the court case with the former SNP MP (who apparently has just been elevated to Minister by Pepper59), hasn't been watching the news. We talked about it on here a couple of weeks ago.

Or are we talking about a different former SNP person?

I don't think Mone needed a salary and there won't be a court case until they decide if there is something that needs to go to court.

Ha ha Volver, every time.

Yep. I have a detector that goes off.

The SNP person allegedly swindled money from an organisation I was a member of. I don't have much sympathy.

I think that certainly ALL SNP members know about that court case* Pepper* and if we know then unionists will know they do like a stick to beat us with.The sums of money are very different between her and Mone though and as I pointed out on the last thread about the swindler ..shes married to a TORY ,maybe she's well taught from him!!

Volver, that must have been awful. Im sorry about that. Paddyann, you need to stop taking all this so personally. I have friends who are SNP supporters and friends who are not. You always seem so defensive. I accept yourself and Volver have different views from myself. Not everyone is going to agree ever. Take it easy.

Thank you for your concern Pepper59. It was an organisation that many people were members of and for each of us individually it wasn't personal, or a lot of money. Just a bit close to home.

Just for clarity, it's not the SNP. ?

* Not on Twitter don't read the Mirror or Guardian*

Yes I read about it

Tory cronies being investigated for mis-demeanours is hardly news now. More an every day event. Sad but true.

Yes I read about this weeks ago.

She once lived locally to me and I met her in M&S with her then schoolgirl daughter years ago. She was very pleasant to chat to but I think she has since lost the plot big time. Very typical of nouveau riche types.

This was widely reported - even in the Daily Mail!

Volver, I have been in situations where similar has happened and it's not nice. Take care.
