Dear All
Yesterday, I said that I believed the process against Baroness Scotland would be rigged.
Events have moved swiftly in order to attempt to kill the story and make sure that she never sees the inside of a criminal court.
Attorney General Baroness Scotland has been fined £5,000 after being found to have employed a housekeeper who was not legally allowed to work in the UK.
She said;
“I have been given an administrative penalty”.
Did anyone believe she was going to court in such a corrupt country as Britain?
Another interesting point is the speed that the penalty was issued.
She further added;
“This is not a case of a criminal act, this is the case of failing to photocopy a document which I absolutely accept was wrong and I have apologised for that wholeheartedly”.
Is the fact that Tongan Loloahi Tapui was working illegally not criminal?
Will Baroness Scotland be turning up at her trial to give evidence?
What would happen if Tapui stated that Baroness Scotland knew?
I think for this reason, a deal will be done to keep her out of court as well.
But both the Tories and the Lib Dems said her position looked "untenable".
This pretty much sums up the entire position!
In a statement issued by her she said;
“she fully accepted that she had made a "technical breach of the rules" and apologised for "this inadvertent error".
The old New Labour tactic of “technical breach of the rules”, this was used in the Wendy Alexander case, another New Labour Politician and she also escaped appearing in court.
Anyone see a pattern here?
Tory MP, Chris Grayling said;
“the law was very clear- that employers could not be "inadvertently innocent".
And Baroness Scotland knows that fully.
So; my prediction that there will be no trial has proven to be correct. You can re read my post on this here.
This is New Labour “justice”!
Yours sincerely
