All 15 of these slags were tory politicians or employees. Bar one. A police officer attached to Sunak protection.

What they did was a criminal offence.

I think their best option is to own up and plead for mercy. But as conservatives they will try and brazen it out. I dont think they have any chance.

Its such a conservative action to place a bet on an event when you already know the result. Decent folk would regard it as theft. Tories see it as an occupational hazard.

It is what Tories do grab all they can before they are thrown out, just like the PPE for hospitals under Bozo the clown when Covid was running riot, i think one contract was given to a publican friend of Wancock worth millions.

Do you think these 15 people are innocent ? Blanket statements like you made dont really cut it. You need some evidence in our legal sytem.
