Welcome to the party. @BylineTimes and @GoodLawProject have been banging on about this for ages already. #COVID19 has given the government cover to legalise corruption yet most people are still getting sidetracked by Nige running down to Dover with binoculars shouting "Invasion"
Five million medical masks bought by the UK government for £45m are missing amid claims of fraud. An entity registered in the British Virgin Islands implicated.
Typical govt incompetence. How did it make due diligence checks b4 handing over public money?

I don't think I have ever seen such an outpouring of love and affection for a public servant as we have seen for Alex Younger tonight on this platform and elsewhere. I hope his family are seeing this too.
@JLFFC6 I miss him walking across the pitch in his three quarter length overcoat before a game. I always imagined he was carrying a shooter under there.
@scott_tanfield@1966MJG Mike, you gotta get over the fact #FFC was a means to an end for Silva. It's well known he wanted the Spurs job and WHU Claret and Booze are adamant he was up for their job. If he makes a deep European run it'll put him on the radar of top 6 clubs in the Prem which is his goal.
Amazing the number if people who think Silva is leaving because of the broken promises from the board. Is it possible he always planned to leave once he had served his time and showed he could stick around in difficult circumstances thus repairing his reputation?
Cottage Talk will return on Friday. Sorry for the delay but for personal reasons I cannot do a show before that.
Trust me we want to do a show about Marco Silva leaving Fulham and who could replace him.
We will see you on Friday. Thank you for your patience. #FFC
@Fulhamtilidie He's a mouthpiece. There was tension between AM and Silva. Silva had a big fan in SK which is why everyone was muted when Silva longed it out at the end.
Can't help but feel #FulhamFC appointing Silva was more luck than judgement (see Megath, Rangers, Parker) but it worked out well for both sides. Silva stabilised #FFC in the Prem, #FFC gave Silva a chance to rehab his reputation but the end reflected badly on both. Thanks Marco.
@ColBennettH4@CravenTheHunter@MrSammyJames To even pretend Benfica is a downgrade on Fulham is nonsense. If he wins something there, makes a deep run in Europe it'll put him on the radar of bigger clubs especially in the Premier League which is where he wants to manage, albeit only at a top 6 club. The move fits his plan.
@kenfanline@rob_s82 Mackintosh won't be going anywhere. He provides human shield services for the Khans and has survived every regime change in recent history.
