Political ``insider trading``Patrick Mercer MP instead of working for his constituents is working
for himself and lining his pockets and probably has outside jobs.......tip of the iceberg?...nah...
.how many more MP`s are elite greedy pigs ?Cash for questions: how the deal was sealed
with Patrick Mercer
As the former soldier turned Conservative MP strode into what he thought was the office of a
lobbying company near Parliament, the offer on the table was clear.
For a fee of £2,000 a month, Patrick Mercer, a popular figure in the House of Commons, would
push the Government to allow the rogue Fijian regime to rejoin the Commonwealth.
The smartly-dressed lobbyist Mr Mercer thought he was meeting said the parliamentary campaign
was being funded by a group of anonymous businesses that wished to profit from Fiji's return to
the international fold.
Unknown to the MP, the "lobbyist" was an undercover reporter investigating how Parliamentarians
are prepared to influence the political process for paying clients.
It is almost 20 years since the "cash for questions" scandal rocked Parliament and became a symbol
of *****Tory sleaze****, but there are still persistent allegations that some Parliamentarians are willing to
break the rules.
Is it just the `nasty party`at it...........nah...................................watch this space...
