Older, more obsessive readers may remember the name Public Impact. My charge during the expenses investigation was that Chris Mole had not feathered his own nest but that he had misused public money on keeping the Ipswich Labour machine running after a catastrophic decline in local activists and locally raised donations.
One of the key parts to this was a river of taxpayer’s money directed to Public Impact, a Reading based printing and design outfit that boasts (in a less public area of their website) that “We do not work for the other parties nor their MPs. We are staffed by Labour Party members and supporters.”
Well at last Public Impact have hit the headlines. This time it is an alleged fraud (the Police have been called in) committed by Sadiq Khan, Chris Mole’s close colleague in the Transport department. The money has been repaid and the Police have shown an interest. I personally think that Sadiq Khan was badly advised.
Who paid for your birthday cards, Chris?
Credit to Guido Fawkes for bringing the Sadiq Khan story to my notice.
