What has happened to the Damian Green investigation?
Any other person, in any other job, would, by now, have been sacked for gross misconduct and misuse of company facilities. (The porn Green was allegedly viewing on a daily basis became illegal just a few days after the discovery).
Damian Green remains in position and the "investigation", being carried out by Sue Gray, one of the most powerful officials in Whitehall, seems to have ground to a standstill.
Could it be that as Damian Green is effectively the Deputy Prime Minister and one of the few remaining close allies of Prime Minister Theresa May, it is deemed to be more important to keep Green in his position at the cabinet table than to conclude the investigation?
The stench of political expediency has often wafted around Downing Street and Parliament, but the clear demonstration that one set of rules applies to Green and other people in privileged positions within government, whilst the rest of us are subject to the full authority of management and due process, is yet another example of the shameful way in which the government of this country is implemented.
The wretched way in which Theresa May clings on to office, supported by discredited cabinet members is shameful and brings politics into sordid disrepute.
