The only “source” appears to be someone who hasn’t been interviewed by the police themselves but who has spoken to someone who has. The only new information appears to be that they’re looking at company cars but I guess that the police will go where they want in their investigation. I hope the police are interviewing all these taxi drivers with inside knowledge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said: “Well, my strategy has been to try to get as many first preferences as possible, obviously I have a significant lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't hold him back though; I think he's the only person to date in the UK to have held the "four great offices of state", i.e. PM, Chancellor of the Exchequer, home secretary and foreign secretary. You could well be right. I didn't know that about Jim Callaghan. Thanks. His autobiography could be an interesting read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not just come out and say from the start you were going to follow HQ orders? I see humza came out and said he has the most first preference votes, a slip of the tongue or something more sinister? Regardless the man is a train wreck and to even come out with that shows his incompetence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
