I feel slightly sorry for Laurie Magnus taking on the role of this government’s ethics advisor.
Where to start ?
Some of the current accusations against Dominic Raab ? Or the increasing evidence of high-level corruption in the awarding of COVID contacts ? Or the way the honours system has been corroded and the House of Lords packed with Tory donors ?
How does one clean up the Augean stables when one is given extremely limited powers to do so ?
I look forward to his first report.
