Sadly, anti-immigrant baiting has always been the right-wing's first resort to boost their flagging popularity. I wonder how the proud boys and girls of the Royal Navy will feel when they are instructed to turn back a flimsy dinghy and stand by as it sinks, drowning women and children. Perhaps Preeti will instruct them to line up on deck and salute as the boat goes down. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

horsefly 4,263 Posted September 12, 2021 Preeti Patel breaks the ministerial code yet again. Probably be promoted to foreign secretary as a result: https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/priti-patel-breaks-rules-again-after-secret-meeting-with-billionaire-and-british-airways/ar-AAOkY28?ocid=msedgntp Home Secretary Priti Patel was branded a serial offender last night over a secret “lobbying” meeting she brokered between a billionaire Tory donor and British Airways. In an alleged breach of the ministerial code Ms Patel arranged high level talks at Heathrow Airport’s Hilton Garden Inn without a Home Office official present – as rules dictate. The hotel is part of a chain owned by Ms Patel’s friend Surinder Arora. Only weeks earlier he declared he needed “all the help we can get from government” after Covid led to a 90% fall in bookings. And he has ambitions of building and running a third Heathrow runway. Tonight Labour called for a probe by Cabinet Secretary Simon Case into the Home Secretary’s conduct. It is almost exactly the same behaviour by Ms Patel which forced her resignation as International Development Secretary in 2017 when she held unauthorised meetings with Israeli officials.
