PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

It’s an old story. You would expect this to happen as a matter of routine. Khaldoon runs one of the Abu Dhabi Sovereign Wealth Funds which invests hundreds of millions in the UK. The Embassy will always be working on trade deals and the 115 case could damage relations. Of course the Embassy would be interested. This is what Embassies do. It is a desperate story by Ziegler. I wonder who prompted this story and what was their motive.

Building the narrative that we're guilty, but were let off due to government pressure...

It’s a classic Ziegler, signifying nothing. Did he expect our gov simply to ignore the situation while not knowing the attitude of UAE on whom we currently rely for large inward investment?

It also, artfully avoids mentioning exactly who was asked what, thus leaving it open for people to infer that the government and foreign office were asking for updates from the Commission itself. No one needed to "insist" that the IC process is independent, there is nothing whatsoever in the emails that remotely suggests that it isn't, although that is clearly what Ziegler wants his readers to infer.
