The NCFC & the Foreign Office mystery

[A Load of Squit 5,129]

Either David Lee has a new job or something dodgy is going on. 

 

[shefcanary 2,387]

So, Liz Truss, who was Foreign Secretary in the past, supports Norwich. And the Foreign Office spent over £1,800 in Norwich's club shop. Now that's support, but what did she buy? Kits for the kids, a couple of scarves, some nice training gear to go to the gym in? Come on Liz reveal all. Or maybe not.😖🤪🤭

So our current PM has been using the government credit card instead of her personal one?

Can we call it Canarygate?

She is in the US. Who has stolen the PM's card?

The club shop is accessible via the internet.

I know we have a PUP in the Foreign Office...

I thought we let Drmic's contract expire but it was a fair fee in the end.

[TeemuVanBasten 3,327]

I'm guessing this was for the Norwich clobber she dished out to sports teams in the USA

Temmu to the rescue, do feel that's probably the most likely answer

[Graham Paddons Beard 2,424]

Under the heading “beauty wellness and fitness “ ? Maybe there are more products available from Ncfc online than us mere mortals are aware of ? And I thought they just sold tracksuits and garden gnomes .

That story is from 2018.

The expenditure in question is from the last year.

She went over to encourage American investment in UK sports, so what if she had a role in bringing in our new investors and this covered hospitality? 

Charles Clarke tried to get Peter Cullum on board that time didn't he, so stranger things have happened!

Best couple of grand the government has ever spent to be fair, can they buy us a defensive midfielder?

It's kicking off on Twitter:

She’s not alone, they’re all the same, your money being spent on her frivolities……nothing new those in government readily accept any way of fleecing the taxpayers.

Another reason to question our political system, it’s antiquated ways and protected from the common law by its misuse……I hate politics as much as religion, shame we can’t get someone in power who is honest, genuinely wants to do the best for the Country and it’s people!

They’re not though, are they? There are lots of hard working MPs who spend many hours beyond a normal working day trying to do the right thing for their constituents or to improve the country, but that’s not an easy story so we don’t hear about them. Partly because the ones who do so are left on the backbenches so are relatively anonymous.

Don't you mean Liz "tank the pound" Truss?

Who knew putting someone as intelligent as a farmyard animal in charge could have dire economic consequences.

I think this may be worse,

"Thornberry also queried more than £900 to Calm Over Chaos, which appears to supply adult colouring books...."

It’s a good job she didn’t do a spend in the concourse. One Mars Bar, one pie and a warm beer would have added another £15 to the bill.

These would be the same constituency MPs who are supposed to hold the Government to account. Why don't they do that part of their job?

Though those aren't the ones that ever achieve any position of power because they're too busy doing their job to play the game, lick arses and toe the party line regardless of how it actually affects or represents their constituents. Too many politicians forget that they are there to represent the people in their constituency and think they are just their to further their parties aims, whatever they may be that week....

There are a large number of MPs who do exactly that. They’re called the opposition. Then there are backbench MPs, many of whom do express their misgivings. But the organisation of Westminster and the main parties means that those with ambition to rise to positions of authority have to keep to the party line or remain on the backbenches indefinitely. You can call this **** licking but it’s not that different to most jobs. To expect MPs to bite the hand that feeds them is optimistic.

See Isabel Hardman’s “Why we get the Wrong Politicians” for more, although I found it a depressing read.
