Tory MP for Montgomeryshire 19:20 - Jun 13 with 2765 views | builthjack | The stupid bugger put a large bet on an election being called for July 4th. He put the bet on a few days before Sooknackered called the election. It so happens that Craig Williams is a very close Parliamentary aide to Sooknackered. In fact he is the closest. He stood to gain a large sum of money, but the Gambling Commission have stepped in. Fool. | |

A gain of £500 from insider knowledge. Totally wrong and very foolish. | |

Agreed totally wrong and completely stupid, but let's not pretend this was a massive bet and he was going to make a considerable amount of money. Which is worse. A stupid Conservative MP receiving a £500 win on a bet he shouldn't have placed. Or a Labour leader of the Senedd taking a £200,000 bung he shouldn't have received. [Post edited 13 Jun 22:12]

Or the Tories taking £15million off a doner and giving him £400million worth of contracts. That’s 75 times , yes 75 times, more than Gethins lump. All wrong yes. The thread is about Sunaks main aide having inside knowledge , being told by Sunak about the election, and going out and placing a £100 bet, knowing he was guaranteed a £500 payout. You rethink that’s ok? Dear me. | |

I think the bloke is a total tool, but if he did really have insider knowledge what was the point in betting £100 to win £500 hardly life changing. It will be interesting to see if the 4th of July is on his betting slip | |

Nobody, nobody at all, predicted a July election. Nobody. Yet Sunaks main aide put a bet on it to gain £500. Wake up Mun. | |

It is a criminal offence yes, under section 42 of the gambling act. | |

From what I’ve read in a newspaper article, he placed the bet via an online account he has with the bookies. I’ve no idea what info you need to provide an account like that, but the bet apparently set the alarm bells ringing at Ladbrookscat it was unusual. If he’s told them he’s an MP when he opened the account and then used the account to place the bet, yes duller than dishwater! The fact that he’s one of the PM’ s main aides his scary. | | | |

Having just seen a series of emails Ms Jones, exchanged with an aide, I despair. This woman is a well paid, well compensated, representative of us, the people who are ultimately picking up the bill. How could she stoop so low (a rhetorical question) and how many others in the Senedd are at it (not a rhetorical question). It's no wonder potential voters are generally so cynical and are not bothering to turn out in an election. But the answer actually is to bother and vote these people out. | | | |

Personally I think a bung to an individual is totally different to a bung to a political party. The Conservatives get it from companies and Labour get it from unions. Did Labour really show their manifesto to the unions for approval before making it public. Dear me. | | | |

It's all a matter of degrees. This is several dgrees les than Gethings 200k and a whole shedload of degrees less than Zahawi but it is still wrong. He must have known it was coming even if he wasn't day specific. The bigger picture for me is A) if he does/did something as stupid as this then he is not fit to be an MP because his judgement is highly questionable and B)He did this and I bet there are plenty others who never get caught.

Not quite as much as the £15million donation given to the Tories for a £400million contracts either. | |

Technically it appears what Gething did was within the rules, while it may have been legal I reckon it comes up well short when it comes to being morally and ethical and it makes one think WTF is going on. As far as I am concerned Gething should be out on his ear. As for the guy who’s donated £15m to the Conservatives, it does beg questions. It’s a huge donation and he’s got contracts worth over £400m. He’s not the only donor who has contracts with the government and who is making big contributions. | | | |

The whole system is corrupt. Donations for contracts or favours, doing certain things for political leaders which gets you into the House of Lords (House of deceivers more like) and all this filters down to lower level politcs too. We have too many politicians by a long way, too many in Westminster and then there's the devolved governments and here in Wales we have 22 local authorities when 5 or 6 would do. When people ask where is all the money going then look at how many MP's/MS's/MSP's/MLA's or local councillors there are, how much money they get/waste or hand out in contracts to companies who are bad value and there is your answer. | | | |
