Starmer is once again claiming to have known nothing in the China spy case’s collapse, especially not Matt Collins’ evidence. This is getting familiar…
Here is every scandal Starmer has pleaded ignorance over:
- China Espionage Case: Not involved, never saw anything, it was only Matt Collins.
- Mandelson & Epstein: “Had I known then what I know now, I’d have never appointed him.”
- Louise Haigh’s Criminal Record: Claimed there was “further information” that was revealed to him that led to her sacking.
- Rayner’s First Housing Scandal: Didn’t need to see the ‘legal advice’ claiming appropriate capital gains tax was paid.
- Grooming Gangs Prosecutions: “Decisions were made by subordinates or that he was not briefed on relevant cases.”
- Andrew Malkinson’s Wrongful Conviction: “Never crossed his desk.”
- Post Office Scandal: “I didn’t see these particular cases. I don’t even know yet what they were about, whether they come within the cohort that is of concern.”
- Al-Fayed Investigation: “These decisions did not cross my desk.”
More to come…
