    Mad how these people who happen to have links to Cummings keep winning lucrative contracts. You’ll be telling me Ben Warner’s family have a finger in an NHS pie too next.

    Even madder how these corrupt ****s keep on managing to get away with it, and how a lot of people won't care. Could you imagine the Daily Fail headlines if this had been Starmer

    The main thing is that you can find one denial of it in the media and use it as evidence that it’s definitely not happening and everyone is wrong for daring to suggest something might be up.

    I don't understand why it's a problem?
    How many of us get jobs through people we know or because we have been recommended?
    Most of my contracts are through knowing people/word of mouth or because I have done a good job previously and they trust me. I don't get what the problem is (maybe I'm being naive?)
    It's probably because it's connected to Cummings. Is it a Guardian story?

    bob how many jobs have you got through mates or recommendations? like me, I bet you've had a few. As long as no law has been broken, then what's the problem? Is it a problem with ethics?

    But you are correct, I get loads of recommendations due to being ****ing brilliant at plastering. Bigger contracts are usually tendered.

    Yeah, I'm just asking?
    I think we all know this stuff goes on. Same with the dodgy knighthoods and awards. I see so much of this going on that I can't understand why this is even news... actually I can... Cummings.
