The Conservative Party

well - I can only quote what Javid said and has been reported in the media but the nuts and bolts are that - amongst others - relatives and families of Gurkha and Afghan interpreters applied for leave to stay with the former serving soldier/interpreter. As well as providing all the usual proofs they were sent letters telling them that they must provide DNA samples to prove relationships. That was not HO policy, was against HO guidelines and in any event wasn't absolute proof in that the "father" had to provide DNA and that wasn't always possible. Therefore further letters were sent telling the participants to do one as they didn't qualify. There was one report on the news tonight where a soldiers Vietnamese wife and son - son BORN in the UK - the son cannot get a passport because his mum and dad are now estranged and his dad won't supply a DNA sample.

Now all this dates back to the period when Mayday was HS. She implemented the "hostile environment" and sent those "go home" vans around London - targeting particular areas btw, I doubt none made their way to Chelsea or Notting Hill, and from that came these yes racist plots from within the HO. I have no idea as to the ethnic, political, religious or political make up of those working in the HO at the time but that is what happened. Why didn't someone report it? No idea. That fact is just another reason to question what was going on at that time. The simple facts appear to be that for you and me in that position forms, affidavits, FB posts etc were deemed adequate proof but if you had an Afghan or Nepalese name DNA was needed. What is also interesting is nowhere has anyone said this DNA was actually tested and "used in evidence". Fucking disgrace. If you were a Nepalese bearing in mind what has happened in recent years would you be spurred on to join our Army. If you were liberated by our troops knowing what is in the public domain would you think the promise of resettlement and support post conflict was sound enough for you to be an interpreter?

No sorry I think you misunderstood my question.

I meant how did this work from a civil service end?

Can you come up with something plausible on how this would be implemented and shows a racist connection?

Only that it seems it was implemented only on a racial profile - was never actually used to influence and outcome and in any event was contrary to all operating guidelines.
 
Another Tory council gone bust.........

and the remarkable admission that the Gambling Commission were writing a report to "help" the Government which effectively is the Gambling Industry trying to make law more helpful for them .......... this shower of shit have no control over anything now - I look forward to them trying to defend this record come the next GE.

Bloody hell mate no wonder you’re worried about finances, that number of MPs you know and all the people that know other MPs(presume this must be a fair few people who have recommended each mp to get a fair view)

That Xmas card bill you have must be huge.

Edit .

I’ve sussed it you’re John Bercow and I claim my prize.

To prove eligibility they are asked to produce all sorts - birth certificates, death certificates of parents and grand parents, passports, sworn affidavits the lot - it suits for say an Italian banker coming to work in the City yet somehow for the dependants of Gurkha's and those for Afghan interpreters who all put their lives on the line for this country suddenly DNA was needed - perhaps they were the wrong colour or the wrong religion? Sajid Javid said nobody needs to give DNA to gain the leave to stay here and its against Home Office policy however on the back of the recent Windrush Scandal this is something too that goes back at least 3 years to the time when Mayday was HS with her hostile environment approach. Furthermore there is already a suggestion that Javid's suggestion that under 100 people were tested is based on Home Office reports that 83 people were refused because of this but in fact 449 requests for DNA were made in total.

After 200 years in service to the British military the way we have treated Gurkha's and their families in the last 5 years or so ( think Joanna Lumley ) some heads need to be hung in fucking shame.

Don't hold yer breath waiting for a politico to engage in this activity!
 
Turns out when they apply the energy cap idea stolen from the Labour 2015 GE Manifesto even that is not as promised - couldn't let their pals in the energy business take a hit now could they? I am starting to think Mayday is actually a sleeper who has been activated by Labour as she did her best last time to throw it away and is undoubtedly trying her hardest to hand Labour a win next time around.

13th November - Interserve denies being on the brink - 13 hours ago - in talks with creditors. Another big outsourcer about to go pop after Carillion. I presume the Govt will press on and deny they are underfunding these vital services and at the same time we will get more stories of cash being moved into pension funds before it crashes and burns. Strong and stable government isn't what it used to be.

Enjoying Watching Mutiny on the Buses with Mayday in the Reg Varney role as she drives a double decker over a cliff laughing maniacally whilst the rest of the PCP are aboard screaming blame at each other rather than attempting to grab the steering wheel and avert disaster.
 
What a fucking shower - today's latest events confirm that Mayday and her "government" will be panned by historians. The chicanery today around the vote that never was just puts a further nail in her sad and sorry coffin.

I've lived through govts led by Wilson, Heath, Callaghan, Thatcher, Major, Blair, Brown, Cameron and now her and she - far and away - is the worst.

Setting aside the Brexit circus she has called an election which cost her a working mandate. During her time in office Carrillion has gone, Interserve is going. Tory councils have gone bankrupt, railways have been a national joke, Cross Rail delayed again and sucks in yet more money, Police, Fire and NHS all pleading for more cash as they all fail to meet targets left right and centre and the Far Right has risen - all that in two years - a pretty impressive trail of disaster but fortunately for her Brexit fuck up will be her epitaph, her foot note in history, the only thing ultimately she will be remembered for.

Nah,

The BBC are intent on making her a martyr.
