Has old Srtignr (actually thick, not dyslexic - joke) been getting up your nose then?<BR/><BR/>Anon: Obviously Gilligan should be all over Boris and the Tories in general. Mandelson has a few moves there in this story but nothing compared to the possible and impossible of the Tories.<BR/><BR/>But is Duncan's original "stake" a particularly big issue???Chris Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15679067503215414300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38067964.post-34444916571573789102009-01-15T21:24:00.000+00:002009-01-15T21:24:00.000+00:00Enjoy: http://kerroncross.blogspot.com/2009/01/dys...Enjoy: <BR/><BR/>http://kerroncross.blogspot.com/2009/01/dyslexics-question-existence-of-graham.htmlKerronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02411755932445989855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38067964.post-69646989711060344152009-01-15T18:37:00.000+00:002009-01-15T18:37:00.000+00:00He is also assuming that there is no other transfe...He is also assuming that there is no other transfer of assets from his mother/trusts other than the declared estate - which would be pretty unusual in an estate of that size. <BR/><BR/>I suspect that a similar analysis could be performed in respect of David Cameron and his wife - who I daresay have both received substantial sums from thier inlaws - but of course inherited wealth is ok for the Tories. <BR/><BR/>Could you imagine the uproar if any journalist was to spend their time trying to disentagle all the financial transactions of any Tory politicians in such detail (now where did Alan Duncan's wealth actually come from?)- or even of a journalist such as Gilligan, never mind a detailed examination of his application of the usual journalistic ethics.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
