Good morfternoon.

The Electoral Commission are about to release their findings that Vote Leave broke electoral laws so Laura Keunssberg is on R4 this morning putting just Vote Leave's side of the story before it's officially in the public domain, freely allowing them to smear the Electoral Commission and the whistle blowers before the Commission's evidence against them has been made public.

I have tended to give Keunssberg the benefit of the doubt, but not any more. She is abusing her position with this biased reporting.

#Breaking Whitehall’s spending watchdog, the National Audit Office, has written to Work and Pensions Secretary Esther McVey to complain of inaccuracies in her statement to Parliament about its critical report on the roll-out of Universal Credit

This isn’t the official report. We don’t know the sanction. & it was leaked & spun by Vote Leave who put it out after midnight, post-football. These are criminal offences & @BorisJohnson & @michaelgove are in the frame & really troubling they used state broadcaster to do this

:

Minister=lying piece of slimeball

From the graun

This is the first time that the NAO has ever released private correspondence with a minister and is a reflection of the tensions between McVey and the NAO.

Welfare secretary misled parliament over reforms, auditors say

Head of National Audit Office says Esther McVey "misinterpreted its report"

" blatantly lied on two parliamentary occasions"

Ignored his request to discuss,continued to lie with knobs on

More tension about anything resembling the truth.

We don't measure hardship and distress we purposefully enacted therefore it doesn't exist

Meanwhile here's a pic of my breakfast-what is it about DWP Ministers and their breakfasts?

Maybe it wasn't McVey but an actor,DWP have a habit of "creating " people.

"Half starving to death and being mocked in public was the best thing that ever happened to me,I get out is six months"

I would open my curtains at appropriate times,but there aren't any.

"Brexit Fundraising - Brillo In Trouble"

Banks had told “ Andrew Neil’s asked me to speak at an event for the Addison Club, his very elite private dining society, on 3 November. He seems to have forgotten our Twitter spat. He’s emailed saying he thinks I’ll ‘find a few in our membership sympathetic to your case and even a few with chequebooks’ ”
......
......did a BBC presenter assist in soliciting donations to the Leave campaign?

No actual punishment is going to be handed out to McVey, of course

You wonder sometimes if there are just too many open goals standing around at PMQs...

There are worse problems to have, tbf.

Tory MP for Taunton Deane busy boasting about a contract a local company has just secured to export ice cream to China - while we're in the EU.

Theresa May says this shows the opportunities available as we're leaving the EU, but as the contract has been secured already it's very difficult to see how Brexit makes any difference to this particular deal one way or another.

As we all know Germany sees no need to leave the EU to increase exports to China, so why do we? I wish political commentators would pick up on this rubbish a bit more.

Leanne Wood has formally been challenged for the Plaid Cymru leadership.

Evening All.

How is this not bringing the party into disrepute?
