She has no experience in anything and it looks like a job too give her something to do she should never have been in that position and everyone below her in the PO and legal should be charged with giving her false information and corruption in the highest order and given jail time

How on earth did she make minister - and then get rewarded with appointment to the Privy Council? Clearly not reward for her competency and intellect!

Difficult oral evidence as documentation given to him and his evidence from memory sometimes conflicted either to timing or whether he had ever seen/had access to some documents. As senior non-executive director for six years from 2016, why didn’t he press for a top lawyer to become a non-exec in 2016-19 in the run-up to the trials? Gobsmacking evidence that QC was finally appointed in 2021, 2 years AFTER the trial/judgements? Non-execs asleep at the wheel? there was no expert (QC level) legal presence as a non-exec. and until 2021 - right through the two trials, all advise came PO Counsel Jane MacLeod or a series of equally biased, very expensive QCs, advising that either the PO had a very good case or that the judge should be recuse himself. Only after the judgements was a new PO Council pointed plus completely different set of silks.

Poor Tolly Kellhurst, she is a nice lady and and was an excellent constituency MP but no-one I spoke to in Medway thought she was ministerial material. However, the conservatives were scraping the barrel by then and as someone brighter than either of us said "people get promoted to their level of incompetence".

@roswilliams2899 2 месяца назад

It's time all MPs had some relevant training, and any put into government posts should have relevant official qualfications for the work they re required to do and oversee.

How come she was ever selected to be an MP ????

@ivorbueb9862 2 месяца назад

Wasn't she an extra in "Yes Minister"?

No body brave enough to seek questions.

@anthonykempton1414 2 месяца назад

Is this for real or is it a sketch- she loved the idea of being a minister but that’s where it ends .Ffs how did she ever get the position.

@hughbaker4997 2 месяца назад

An example of someone being promoted to a position to which they are not suited."you know"

@GarethJones-yt1hr 2 месяца назад

if this is government cons or labour god help us.

Oh wondered what happened to her. I remember watching her destroyed on question time. She also Lied about supporting a local housing development being done largely under the table. In which she u turned and said she had always been against it after once local environmental groups and local people spoke up. She is awful at public speaking and was a car crash as a politician. Completely useless and ineffective. Politicians are lying and trying to pass the buck on this issue too but many are culpable too including Davey. I'm not surprised if she had anything to do with this that she messed that up too then lied about it.

@oldnbold8766 2 месяца назад

How many sup postmasters did she speak to? All the discussions are with the wrong people. POL had been lying for years ffs

How did KT get a government role she has shown constantly at the early she has mo ability to perform? This isn’t asleep at the wheel it’s deliberate incompetence by her and government. This was more like Yes Minister than real life
