GF.

I agree with you about Manuel.

He is a moaner.

He likes giving his opinion on seemingly everything, but would like to suppress the opinion of others. Typical bully boy tory attitudes prevalent in the present broken leadership of the torid party.

He has to give his opinions away, nobody when he is at home would probably listen to him, certainly not pay for them.

A shoddy little man comes to mind.

Here's an opinion you had, which proved to be totally correct:

Husband and wife from Northampton face jail after pleading guilty to US$1 million fraud conspiracy charge - Paul and Sandra Dunham

Northampton Chronicle
Published on 10 December 2014, 21:30

Northampton couple Paul and Sandra Dunham have pleaded guilty to conspiring to commit fraud against their American employer.

The Dunhams, who were extradited to the United States after a long legal battle, admitted the charge which related to US$ 1 million of fraud against PACE Worldwide.

Paul Dunham, aged 59, also pleaded guilty to money laundering. He now faces up to 20 years in jail for conspiracy and money laundering.

Sandra Dunham, aged 58, under a plea bargaining deal, will be sentenced to 60 days in prison. Sentencing for both will take place on January 29.

The guilty pleas were reported on the FIB Baltimore division’s website tonight.

The statement by the US Attorney’s Office said Paul Dunham held a number of executive positions including president and chief operating officer. Sandra Dunham, aged 58, was director of sales and marketing director.

They relocated to Maryland and North Carolina and were given corporate credit cards, the FBI said.

“Between 2002 and 2009, Paul and Sandra Dunham fraudulently charged personal expenses to their corporate credit cards and submitted vouchers to PACE for reimbursement that falsely described the expenditures as business expenses,” it said.

“For example, Paul Dunham represented that $3,007 had been spent on meals during business meetings, when in fact the money was spent on luxury bedding for his upscale North Carolina residence.

“Sandra Dunham sought reimbursement for $8,397 which she represented as expenses incurred to cancel a vacation due to a business meeting, when these expenses were actually mortgage payments the couple made on two separate time share units the couple had purchased in Barbados.

“Other personal expenses which were falsely described as business expenditures included personal legal fees, expensive furniture, a domed pet residence and a dog sofa,” the statement said.

“The couple also fraudulently billed PACE Europe Ltd. for business expenses already paid by PACE Worldwide, obtaining duplicate reimbursements,” it added.

The statement said: “In addition, a substantial portion of the scheme involved Paul Dunham abusing a private position of trust to manage and direct others, including his secretary, in the execution of the scheme.

“Moreover, Paul Dunham repeatedly forged receipts and invoices to create the false appearance that they were for business, rather than personal expenses.

“As a result of the lengthy scheme, US$1 million in actual losses were incurred. Paul and Sandra Dunham have agreed to forfeit and pay restitution of $1 million,” the statement added.

Paul Dunham's Guilty Plea is available to be read in full detail HERE.

The Guilty Plea document is about 12 pages long, with the 'stipulated facts' details of the crimes committed ranging from page 9 to page 12.

Poll: Labour Won’t Deliver “Programme British People Want”



How many relaunches is that now? Ed Miliband’s big speech on the economy today is being tipped by sympathetic quarters of the press as showing Labour are serious about reducing the deficit, so at least there’s no chance he will forget to mention it this time. Yet Ed is also going to attack the Tories for planning to cut spending to “1930s levels”, insisting “That is not our programme, that will never be our programme, and I do not believe it is the programme the British people want”. Just one problem: a ComRes poll for ITV out last night shows that this is the “programme the British people want”. 33% support cutting spending to 1930s levels, 26% oppose. Another great relaunch success…

LOL Fred and Hays is holding his hand for him.


Keep taking the crack Hays old boy, the whacky backy.

The Hays Song..........

On a South London ring road,

Diesel fumes in my hair,

Warm smell of samosas,

Rising up through the air.

Up ahead by the Poundshop,

I saw a flickering light,

Completely knackered and I needed a drink.

Thought I’d stop for the night.

I am watching Miliband trotting more rubbish as he tries to relaunch his party and leadership. He is trying to reach the public with economic arguments. The trouble is that the public don't believe a word he says. They know Labour is not credible in the economic arena.

Brilliant speech from Milly, PM in waiting.

Haze,

The mantra you spout must have been sent out by party central office.

Miliband was talking sense and respecting the economic problems of the majority than attempting to line the pockets of the greedy few and leading to greater disparity than at present.

Like Cameron and Osborne's policies you belong back in the 1930s.

You and your ideology will be rejected in May.

I hope the backlash to the present period of misrule will be proportionate.

Hays we had 13 years of sheer bliss under the last labour government. Never had it so good.

What went wrong when the Tories came to power just under 5 years ago??????

The press were unconvinced by his speech. You could tell by their questions.

Fred said....."Hays.... Like Cameron and Osborne's policies you belong back in the 1930s."............ends jeez Fred that would make him about 6 year old, mind I bet he spoke more sense then than he does now LOL LOL LOL LOL.

Exec
I didn't think the couple were necessarily guilty, but felt they should return to the US to answer the charges. It looks like they conned everyone including all their supporters here in the UK.

hays stop talking tosh. Watch Labour gain a 5% lead in this weekends polls.

Hays do you want a gentlemans bet say a tenner.????

The public won't even understand his speech. That's really his trouble. He thinks an attempted intellectual argument will sway the public.

Ed Miliband unveils Labour pledges on deficit and NHS

Leader pledges that if party wins election it will cut deficit every year while securing the future of the health service



Patrick Wintour, political editor


The Guardian, Thursday 11 December 2014 11.34 GMT





Ed Miliband has unveiled the first of Labour’s five election pledges, promising to cut the deficit every year and secure the future of the NHS.

The full pledge reads: “We will build a strong economic foundation and balance the books. We will cut the deficit every year while securing the future of the NHS. And none of our manifesto commitments will require additional borrowing.”

In a speech on Thursday, the Labour leader sought to capture the middle ground on the deficit, saying he would not follow the Conservatives’ plan for cutting total public spending to 35% of GDP. Instead, he promised to reduce spending in most departments year-on-year until the current deficit was eliminated.

He said Labour was engaged in a fight for the soul of Britain, and asserted that Tory fiscal plans would result in the disintegration of public services.
