Looking after their chums: Jacob Rees-Mogg’s business partner gets senior trade role
Rees-Mogg: one of his business chums just landed a job in the government, for no very good reason.
Isn’t it strange how Tories say they hate socialism – but practise it all the time, albeit limited to just themselves and their chums.
We’ve got seriously straitened times coming, and the Tory response has been to hand billions of pounds, that was intended to cope with Coronavirus, to their friends under false pretences.
And those chums to whom they couldn’t hand over massive gobbets of public cash got public jobs instead – like this one:
Abusiness partner of Jacob Rees-Mogg, who is also a former vice-chair of the Conservative Party, has been appointed to a senior role at the Department for International Trade.
International Trade Secretary Liz Truss announced that Dominic Johnson, CEO of Somerset Capital Management, will be joining the DIT non-executive board, and will chair the Audit and Risk Assurance Committee.
It seems this Johnson’s qualification for the job is knowing Jacob Rees-Mogg.
Can you imagine the fuss they would make if anybody else adopted these corrupt practices?
