Ashcroft Inquiry resquested by Mandelson
Lord Mandelson is 100 % right on this point, by requesting a Full inquiry.
Michael Ashcroft gave an undertaking back in 2000 & we still after 10 years have not had correct closure.
The Inquiry should be asking where does the wealth originate ! & it is not enough to say
Security & he sold a company to Tyco ( which itself got caught up in many alternative scandals after the sale anyway)
Belize is a very questionable offshore centre to Have & still have much links.
The Economist , which is not an anti Tory journal , only the other year ran a story, linking Banks /Ashcroft were associated with with Chavez & Venezuela
& whilst the inquiry is on-
what has Cameron promised this Lord for his generous financial & other assistance
a Minister for
Security
Imports
Unique Marketing
We are in a very slippery environment – & when Michael Grove wrote for the Times in 2000 ( yes shadow/ opposition home sec) very negative comments about Ashcroft- but now embarrassingly says , it was a joke! ( on newsnight with Kirsty last night )
no way , & no can do for Democracy.
This has nothing to do with Labour Spin! Morals or what the other non doms are doing !
investigate a very intriguing world of this Miami/ Belize South America UK Story
Yes that is the question?
What has Ashcroft been promised?
To further more of his Belize interests through the UK !
Buying Votes maybe a new trend – if they are successful so to further that more through the system
In the past , someone born in the UK could not get Non Dom status–
so come this was not a problem ? and who received the funds to be so sympathetic !!
There is much to this story than cheap Mandelsohn bashing !
How much money has crept & is creeping in through side doors with no accountability to its origin and true source !
