Victoria Concordia Crescit?

As the Government prepares to decide about football governance, the Prime Minister accepts a private box at Arsenal, paid for by the Premier League. So much for, "Well, none of this is exactly corruption." What else would you call it?

"Security"? Starmer always has colossal security at public expense, because he is the Prime Minister. That we almost never notice them tells us how good they are. But that means that Starmer has no need of a private box. He knows, though, that the well-bred do not inquire further when told that something is for or about "security".

In May 2008, Mohamed Al-Fayed, as was presumably his legal name in the United Kingdom, was interviewed under caution over the sexual assault of a 15-year-old girl. In February 2009, the Crown Prosecution Service declined to charge him. You will never guess who was the Director of Public Prosecutions in February 2009.

Yet again, Starmer claims to have had no involvement. How high did someone's profile have to be before Starmer became involved? Considering quite his pay, pension and expenses as DPP, and the position's importance in ostensibly qualifying him to be Prime Minister, what was his job? What did he do?

    1. If he were a Tory, then he would already be on the way out. But he is not, so who knows? That is the answer to people who say that he is one. If he were, then by now he would be, if not toast, then toasting.
