Site Supporter Winchester White 255 Posted November 20, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted November 20, 2020 Show the chap in charge of the independent report on whether she broke the ministerial code on bullying finds she did. Johnson then reads it and says she didn't and the case is closed. He has now resigned his position. Unbelievable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

She was at one point, or at least held a shadow cabinet position. I dont mind Patel, a lot of it is paper/media talk and the usual whitch hunt in some circles. She deserves time. Her hands are tied at the moment with regards to immigration, once Brexit is complete or done or over, I'm sure she will start cracking on with business. I imagine some dont like like her because she doesnt suit their BAME narrative, unlike the Lammys of this world. Edited November 20, 2020 by Mr Grey Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Abbott would have no clue that Pritti Patel has no clue. Abbot would be sat there with odd shoes on counting on her abacus, now she was and is thick as pig shit!

London Wanderer 56 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Bloody lovely thread this. So the solution to illegal immigration is drowning people. Mothers and babies included of course. And anyone who is bullied in the workplace is just a woke snowflake who needs to man the fuck up. If in place, I wonder if those policies would make this country a safer and more prosperous place to live in ten years. Happy Friday ❄️ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nowack 15 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I have met many people in work who cover a lack of ability and intelligence with table thumping and bullying. The anecdotal evidence leads me to believe she is one of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The anecdotal evidence leads me to believe she is one of them. I once was at a firm when a new MD was appointed. He ruled by fear, without doubt had a negative effect personel. Seemed to like putting people on edge or putting them down (I was young at the time and he had a sarcy pop at me after I'd 'discovered' something as part of my work in the labs). An absolute de-motivator. However, at the same time I'd been let down by the company secretary etc and not been put into the company pension scheme, and lost entitled contributions. Basically other folk not doing their job. In the end I had no option but to report it, the same MD listened and by the end of the day the payments I was entitled to were sorted. So a fair bloke, yes. A cunt yes. Capable- overall don't know as he was only there for a few months! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'll stick with Ladbrokes 😉. It's going to happen. Sir Kier will only do one term imo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
