Cash for honours - Total Whitewash.


You have to be having a laugh, 16 months of pc plod asking questions. Interviews, even the PM being questioned, Levy getting arrested along with others and now not a single person faces any charges?

Someone is definately taking the piss.

The Crown Prosecution Service is set to announce its decision in the morning but has so far refused to formally comment.

Mr Blair's chief fundraiser Lord Levy, his Director of Government Relations Ruth Turner and Labour donor Sir Christopher Evans were all arrested as part of the inquiry.

**Don't think we have heard the last of this one, watch the dour cyclopian ones spin machine go into overdrive on this one. Angus McNeill hit the nail on the head by saying...

"We've had an investigation going on for the past 16 months, there have been 6,300 documents at the end of that given by the Yard to the Crown Prosecution Service.

"The Yard liaised with the CPS through all this, and now it seems the CPS are trying to tell us it's all a wild goose chase."
From Guido some interesting stats:
Tony Blair created 292 peers. Millions were raised from the recipients of those honours.
The correlation between making large donations to the Labour Party and receiving an honour is extraordinary. Statistical analysis shows that 58.54% of all donors giving more than £50,000 to the Labour Party receive an honour. This compares to just 0.035% of non-donors. Large Labour Party donors are 1,657 times more likely to receive an honour than a non-donor and 6,969 times more likely to receive a peerage. It is almost impossible to avoid the conclusion that the Labour Party has been selling honours, including places in the House of Lords. An analysis of all donations over £50,000 since 2001 reveals that Honour certainly has its price. We publish below the average amount donated by the recipients of various honours – an “Honours Price List”. Those receiving a Peerage have given £1.07 million on average, and a Knighthood £747,000...

Funding Facts:
  • 80% of Labour's election funding came from the covert Loans for Lordship program.
  • Every donor who has given the party more than £1 million has been given a knighthood or a peerage.
  • Three quarters of those individuals who have given more than £50,000 to the Labour Party since 2001 have received an honour.

It was a whitewash,a sleezy Government covering its rotten tracks. Look at Courtney Coventry's website and her statement,that tells it all.
