Still think the UK is above corruption?

Zoltan TeglasYou mean like Biden’s trillion (with a T) $ COVID relief plan ? Get your facts straight. The Grenfell Tower enquiry hasn’t concluded yet.
Charles Dalrymple-ChumleyLike all the millions the tories gave to their mates during the pandemic, or the dozens of deaths in Grenfell Tower that no one is accountable for?
