We need a fully independent review & not just into Cameron's activities

This Government is riddled with cronyism from #Westferry to #Covid contracts. Cameron could do what he did because the door was openhttps://t.co/3YwBu5qdy2
David Cameron once said "we're all in it together"

The Greensill scandal casts new light on what he really meant
THEY'RE all in it together
Cosy "private drinks" with ministers. Text messages to the Chancellor. A former PM set to make tens of millions.
The whole thing stinks.
Responses to the Cameron/Greensill scandal will show just how far British Conservatives & their client journalists have followed American Republicans & Fox News down the path to blatant & unapologetic corruption.

Important new revelations in Greensill scandal which looks worse & worse. Not just because of what it reveals about rancid cronyism but also our terrifying inability to hold anyone to account. No shame. No accountability. And seemingly no oppositionhttps://t.co/3RdLtZtKK0

Devastating story about David Cameron in today’s Sunday Times, alleging he sought to make money out of the wages of NHS staff coping with the pandemic, and the government tried hard to accommodate him. If true, surely the greatest ethical scandal in British political history pic.twitter.com/8vrQ6SL61U

I recall Sir John Major, educated Rutlish grammar, Wimbledon, saying when he left No 10 he got a lot of highly remunerative job offers he felt it would be inappropriate for a former PM to consider. If only @David_Cameron, educated Eton, had such class.

Today we found out:

✅ Boris Johnson still won’t act on Northern Ireland
✅ No10 rewrote “independent” race report
✅ Tory donor funded anti-lockdown scientist who advised Johnson against locking down
✅ Cameron stood to gain £21m from lobbying
And the day isn’t even over yet
GOVERNMENT INQUIRIES:

Russia Report - suppressed ❌
Priti Patel bullying - ignored❌
Racism in UK - rigged❌
Covid response - refused❌
Covid cronyism - refused❌
Racism in Tory Party - still waiting❌
So I’ve every confidence the one into Cameron and Greensill will be fine
There’s another myth, those who argue that Mr Cameron is simply a “private citizen” and divorced from the public realm. Except as a fmr Prime Minister he claims substatial sums of public money to run his office (via the Public Duty Costs Allowance). https://t.co/gqcW75KzH8 pic.twitter.com/np3hTpmh7e

Cameron needlessly called the referendum which led to Brexit, a great British disaster. Then he resigned, paving the way for Johnson. Then he teamed up with dodgy financier he had sponsored in No 10 & lobbied for him during COVID19 to make £60m
