@ThomasSBergen1 The 'charity begins at home' brigade. No wonder the country's in the state it's in.

2. The lamestream media missed this story because they were useless/corrupt!

1. This was David vs Goliath, and David won!

No – Zahawi and his advisers made the tactical mistake of accidentally SLAPPing someone with plenty of financial resources, time, litigation experience, and plenty of contacts and friends in the legal, tax and media worlds.

@KateEMcCann @adamboultonTABB @TimesRadio Yawn.

[John Crace @JohnJCrace]

So, if Zahawi sacked for breaking ministerial code, why not Suella Braverman?

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

You’re now being asked to believe that a man Boris Johnson repeatedly consulted for ‘financial advice’ was miraculously & coincidentally contacted out of the blue by an old chum & distant cousin of Johnson who had independently developed a desire to lend Johnson lots of cash. 1/2

@BBCPolitics @lewis_goodall Snake oil salesman Gove pours a bucket of oil on the breaking news of the sacking of another snake oil salesman.

[Lewis Goodall @lewis_goodall]

NEW: Lib Dems say Zahawi should resign as an MP- “Given this was a serious breach of the ministerial code, Nadhim Zahawi must also do the right thing and resign as an MP. He has shown he is unfit to serve in the Cabinet and unfit to serve the people of Stratford-upon-Avon.”

[Lewis Goodall @lewis_goodall]

Context: Boris Johnson said earlier in the week he was “ding dang sure” that Richard Sharp knew “absolutely nothing” about his personal finances.

[Mark Welshpool @MarkWelshpool]

@lewis_goodall He should know. 😏

Sunak belatedly sacking Nadhim Zawahi while Gove is doing live interviews & defending him is peak Tory Chaos

@ThomasSBergen1 Zahawi has no shame. #TorySleaze

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

Your reminder…

That just last summer Zahawi had put himself forward to be our PM

Such is the state of the dregs left in the Tory party

Another reminder…

He’s still a sitting MP.

Rishi Sunak: “With regard to the appointment of [Zahawi] the usual appointments process was followed. No issues were raised with me when he was appointed to his current role”. #PMQs

[Paul Brand @PaulBrandITV]

Wow, civil servant says he was sacked after calling @mrjamesob to speak out about the behaviour of Boris Johnson's government in July.

[That Civil Service tweet twice a day (fan account) @ThatCivilTweet]

Arrogant and offensive. Can you imagine having to work with these truth twisters?

[Mark Welshpool @MarkWelshpool]

@mrjamesob It's hard to know what Conservatives see in this man seeing as he knows nothing about anything.

I think they must be utterly seduced by the style, the confidence, the posh voice, the ever-present smirk and of course Johnson's weapons-grade ability to lie and get away with it.

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

Oddly, Johnson's sneering dismissal of the need for any tanks ever in Ukraine doesn't get a mention in his postcard from Kyiv on the front page of today's Daily Mail. The man will use absolutely anything, including war & tragedy, to promote himself while the Mail holds his coat.

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

Boris Johnson blamed the EU for Putin's 2014 attacks on Ukraine. It is impossible to properly describe his utter shamelessness. https://t.co/V8HIOuT97Y
