he had the option of not resigning.

TTT at 15.12, I’ve got a better idea let’s not get Rodders into government.What does need to happen is either Boris has to go or he needs to stop being influenced by Carrie and get back to proper government.If he can’t then he should go but SKS in No 10,don’t make me laugh.

// Stableford Very disappointed that Owen Paterson has been left with no option but to resign. Lets hope the process is reviewed before other families fall victim. //

He pocketed £500,000 and you say he is a victim LOL.

// Randox (the NI firm that Peterson lobbied for) would not long after win £500m of government work for the NHS’s Covid test and trace programme. The company had already been favoured with a visit to its labs in Northern Ireland by the then health secretary, Matt Hancock, in 2019. //

Well, that puts a different complexion on things. £500Million of tax payers money goes to Randox, the company Paterson was lobbying for.
