Plymouth MP Johnny Mercer faces prison if he does not follow Afghanistan Inquiry order



The Veterans' Minister has been ordered to hand over names of those who told him about alleged special forces murders in Afghanistan or face a potential prison sentence.

The chairman of the Afghanistan Inquiry, Sir Charles Haddon-Cave has given Plymouth MP Johnny Mercer until April 5 to provide a witness statement containing the names.

During the minister's evidence to the probe last month, the chairman told Mr Mercer his decision to "refuse to answer legitimate questions... at a public inquiry" were "disappointing... surprising... and completely unacceptable".

His words came after Mr Mercer repeatedly refused to hand over names of "multiple officers" who told him about allegations of murder and a cover-up during his time as a backbench MP.

Providing his reasons for not disclosing the names, he told counsel to the inquiry Oliver Glasgow KC last month: "The one thing you can hold on to is your integrity and I will be doing that with these individuals."

The inquiry said Mr Mercer was served with a Section 21 notice on March 13, compelling him to hand over the names, which the inquiry have insisted will be "treated in confidence".

In the order, the chairman said the consequences of failing to comply without reasonable excuse would be "a criminal offence punishable with imprisonment and/or a fine."

Sir Charles also said the High Court could enforce the order through contempt of court proceedings, which "may result in imprisonment".

He's 100% going to grass up everyone, but not because it's the correct moral thing to do, but more to save his own neck. I'm genuinely going to miss him when he's voted out at the next GE

Could just quote the entire article. Most sane housing market :shepface:
Councils now sell off more houses than they build. Thatcher’s legacy, right to buy, is a failure

quote:

the few local authorities that have been building significant amounts of new social housing in recent years have been forced by right to buy to sell off more homes than they can build. Seven of Norwich’s newest council homes are already in the process of being sold off, fewer than five years after they were completed.
Other authorities have created subsidiary companies which can be used to rent out homes while remaining exempt from right to buy.

quote:

Despite right to buy being so destructive to public finances that it has been abolished in Scotland and Wales, Labour has announced it will keep Thatcher’s policy if it wins the next general election.

It’s the same thing as when the new top gun movie came out and was successful and all the right wing nutters got excited and said it showed Americans want guns and planes and bombs in movies not lefty things. Now they’re getting excited that an attractive woman with a massive rack is becoming a popular movie star as this proves REAL America likes blondes and tits

They're desperate for a conservative Taylor Swift and they're trying to manifest it by wanking about a blond lady with big boobs. They think that the Blond Bombshell has been a maligned concept since the rappers started going on about the asses and this is a Retvrn to tradition.

Essentially Conservative politics is stuck in 14 year old boy territory.

She's a conventionally attractive white blonde woman with a big boobs. She hosted SNL and had fun with some of the jokes that referenced her chest. In the minds of certain deranged reactionaries that means that Woke Is Dead Now, because all us lefties are joyless scolds who actively hate 'conventional beauty' and are trying to Culturally Marxism our way to the destruction of Western Society by filling media and vidya with buff, short/blue-haired trans women who hate men and can't take a joke.

It's the dumbest thing (so far). It's all projection. Sydney Sweeney has said or done nothing of a political nature (in any direction) but because she went on TV in a low-cut dress and made some Hooters gags she's now a conservative darling. Really pathetic. And dumb.

They'll inevitably find something to cancel her about. Since she hasn't actively done anything to earn their admiration other than 'exist', she won't even have to do anything to lose it. She'll just appear in the wrong film, or say some innocuous word or phrase that will trigger them and then they'll be able to rage about how Woke Has Even Captured The Pretty Women With Big Cans.
