I'd expect that all embassies and consulates are informed as a matter of course when any government officials are in their territories - even if all they are lying on the beach at Eilat for a fortnight. It's the contradictions in the story he is pointing out, not whether MP's on holidays are covered by consular staff. He's not talking about suspicions of being in contact with consular staff. Merely the information given has been consistently conflicting. Even the issue of what the consulate knew has contradicting answers. Not whether it's suspicious. What's suspicious is different sources telling different stories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biffer Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Penny Mordaunt's bio makes interesting reading. Named after a Navy frigate, only female MP who is a Royal Navy reservist, great grand-daughter of the first Labour chancellor of the exchequer, cousin of Angela Lansbury. Previous work experience includes in orphanages in pre-revolutionary Romania and as a magician's assistant. And she breeds Burmese cats.

Quite appropriate for the Tories that Penny comes after Priti... Edited November 9, 2017 by Toepoke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
