Tessa (see no evil) Jowell

Okay, I’ve been holding off this one, but since Gus has now reported

As I understand it, Tessa claims that:

- her husband did not tell her, that he was given a $600,000 gift, (‘cos you know, you’d never mention it would you)
- she signed the form mortgaging her home for $600,000, with no knowledge of what the money was to be invested in (‘cos we all would endanger our home and future without any questions at all), and
- she did not know that the same mortgage of $600,000 was paid off several weeks later (again, barely worth a mention)

So if you believe her,

Would you not wonder, if such a brainless fuckwitt, who doesn’t seemed concerned, when large sums of money flow around her personal affairs, is absolutely the best guardian for the public purse? Really, should she still be a minister? Surely, surely not

A similar such enquiry by the then cabinet secretary, Robin Butler in the 1980’s, cleared Jonathan Aitken of any wrongdoing. So they obviously represent a rigorous analysis of a persons affairs.
