    you couldn't make this stuff up could you? 
    Owen Paterson is paid £520 an hour by Randox who end up with £480,000,000.00 worth of tax payer funded contracts.

    Just as much of a coincidence as the fact that Dido Harding who worked for the Jockey Club etc based at Newmarket got a job that she wasn't up to, given to her by the MP for Newmarket .... Matt Hancock

    Would that be the same Dido Harding, now Baroness Harding who is married to John Penrose, the anti corruption MP?

    Does anyone know WHY she was awarded Baroness status? Just curious

    Wish someone would send me to the British Virgin Islands, they are beautiful. I was lucky enough to sail round them many years ago.
