Oh Warsi
Warsi is in Malaysia, but has managed to write to the Lords Standards Commissioner to ask to be investigated for her rather suspicious expenses. A preliminary probe has been triggered, with the full inquiry likely to follow. Scotland Yard claim not to have received a complaint. Yet. Presumably one of the ninety officers from Operation Weeting could be seconded for a couple of days?
UPDATE:
The question are mounting up:
“A Conservative spokesman said the peer stayed around 12 nights at the house over a period of about six weeks and believed she was a guest of Mr Khan, rather than Dr Moustafa. He would not say how much Lady Warsi paid to Mr Khan nor whether the payments were made in cash.
“If MPs want to say that the case should go to the police they can do that and they will look very silly,” he said. “It was for a very short period of time several years ago. She made a financial contribution around the same amount she would have paid for a hotel. Whatever agreements Dr Moustafa and Naweed had, that’s a matter for them.””
- Where was the hotel she is using as a comparison, and how much did it cost?
- How much did Warsi pay her Special Adviser Naweed Khan?
- As a non-landlord this income is taxable. Did he declare it?
Blaming the SpAd? Hunt would be proud…
Stable door, horse?
Don’t worry, Mr Fakes, I’ll get right on it! Like you, I like nothing better as a top, unbent cop, than to go around fingering and banging up arseholes, unless of course they live in Hendon, and have powerful contacts with a Middle Eastern security service, what has a habit of extra-judicially de-living people.
The truly ‘untouchables’
She’s been flushed out now. She’s on the run!
Was there anything else to this “arrangement”, was she getting some halal sausage in her love cave?
Regarding the taxable nature of the payment on the third party’s behalf – so what? That’s nothing to do with Warsi and she can’t be held responsible for it. It’s not worth mentioning.
This all sounds like lackadaisical cock-up rather than conspiracy to me.
The odd bit is down to the doctor, and what he got paid etc.
He says he let Mr Kahn use his house free.
It would then be rather odd for Mr. Kahn to sublet to Ms Warsi. An unusual arrangement, but possible I suppose.
But, I also got the impression that the doctor had given keys and permission to use the house directly to Ms Warsi for free. Thas would be hard to explain away.
This one is not going to amount to anything.
I think that we can all see that she is “unpopular” and is being stitched up.
Could it be spin to obscure more high profile cases.
We will find it is “a storm in a teacup” and that, as a consequence, it is really is not worth investigating the “higher value” rogues.
We are so easily led by the nose.
The sums involved are below the “rent a room” allowance.
No case to answer.
With one mighty bound, she was free again.
Another who has fled to foreign parts hoping the dust will settle. Bahrain, eh! Wonder how he landed that particular job.
Silly man.
Can not see the woods for the trees.
They always plead innocence until they get to court, where they then plead guilty to reduce their sentence.
odd how this came out while she was on the other side of the world. Is she on a tax-funded jaunt?
Funny thing is, she always looked like toast from the first time I saw her.
And what is she doing in Malaysia – apart from spending more of our taxes for absolutely no good reason.
These jollies abroad for the rul;ing elite have to stop.
Warsi – you are a thief & a liar – well qualified for public service – shame you cannot get elected anywhere.
Troughing bastards the lot of them.
Thats the final straw for me – sod the Tories I am off to UKIP.
Indeed.
She always did look like a criminal who had got away with something.
Not so smug now – and lets see your expenses and costs to taxpayer for your Malaysian trip.
Cameron out.
I’ve always voted UKIP. Whilst there are a few backbench Tories who are OK, most of those in the cabinet, or those who actually decide policy are a bunch of limp wristed liberals.
Let us be realistic. The Landlord has manufactured this Hoohah, because the Tories refused to endorse the gentleman’s dodgy Arab friends!
At the time of the “offence” the expenses rules were markedly different from the rules today. In those days, before the big scandal, overnight travel expenses were more grant than expense, requiring no receipts.
It would be very difficult to prosecute , under the circumstances
Any other politicians willing to mention Muslim males in a less than flattering way?
Thought not.
Well done BBC, MSM and NuLiebore. Normal(ising) service is resumed.
This aint about the money, the good Muslim girl has been shagging her advisor…
What happened to Dennis Mc Shane re his expenses ? he still sticks his oar in regularly on BBC.
Wow – first too!!!
Err…no.
will she be deported at the end of her sentence?
Err……… check the first post
Ken says Warsi is innocent..
ken is the ventriloquist’s dummy.
Only ninty officers in weeting? and the rest, the other half of that waste of space the met have just taken a jolly to libya
Not as good a jolly as the PSNI have as their officers are currently in Mauritius ‘accompanying and supporting’ the family of the murdered honeymoon girl at the trial of the accused.
and thousands of them are running after a stupid bloody torch thing.
Isn’t the standards line by our MPs and Lordships that they act within the “laws and spirit of the laws”?
What’s a ‘spirit’ of a law?
Something that’s taxpayer-subsidised in the commons bars.
It’s what’s left when you’ve killed it.
To not just be a good bloke, but to appear as though you’re a good bloke too.
The problem is a lack of respect for taxpayers money.
You would have thought, what with all thye laptops, iPads & iPhones the taxpayer buys for the ruling elite that they might just keep a PDF of the rule book on said devices so they know what is allowed & what is taking the piss?
Ther rules, as Cameron re-wrote them, are so vague that all manner of thieving is permitted.
Cameron – what a complete loser.
Blue Labour out.
A second pdf for the spirit of the law would have in a big font:
“Is that just taking the piss?”
“Can you explain this away without bullshitting?”
It may have something to do with this heatwave but talking about Warsi and preliminary probes in the same paragraph has caused my imagination to wander into uncharted territory. How much is a bottle of mind bleach these days?
You and me both, mate. The hot weather plays tricks with the mind. I’d already envisaged the secondary probe.
That Mensch woman was on about Warsi this woman. “She’s done nothing wrong”. They all make me want to spit – the thieving bastards.
Might be because she’s got a similar gig on the go?
Taking class-A drugs is punishable by imprisonment, unless we do it.
F*ck off I am an MP and don’t forget it and I write sh1t novels

*Yeah. Right.
Dumb schmucks! They should put it all off-shore and claim benefits like what I do.
So you have also seen the Beeb’s Panorama investigation into all this tax dodging money laundering then.
If you want a plain explanation as to what’s happening in the Eurozone with regard to the Greek debacle, perhaps the following will enlighten you:
The tribal wisdom of the Lakota Indians, passed on from generation to generation, says that;
“When you discover that you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount”.
However, in government more advanced strategies are often employed, such as:
1. Buying a stronger whip.
2. Changing riders.
3. Appointing a committee to study the horse.
4. Arranging to visit foreign countries to see how other cultures ride dead horses.
5. Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be included.
6. Reclassifying the dead horse as living-impaired.
7. Hiring outside contractors to ride the dead horse.
8. Harnessing several dead horses together to increase speed
9. Providing additional funding and/or training to increase the dead horse’s performance.
10. Doing a productivity study to see if lighter riders would improve the dead horse’s performance.
11. Declaring that as the dead horse does not have to be fed, it is less costly, carries lower overhead and therefore contributes substantially more to the bottom line of the economy than do some other horses.
12. Rewriting the expected performance requirements for all horses.
And of course….
13 Promoting the dead horse to a supervisory position.
Offshore the riding of dead horses to save money.
Or form a dead horse ‘charity’ and pour in lots and lots of public money for marketing campaigns and ‘scientific’ computer modeling to show that the country needs more dead horses – for the sake of the cheeeldren!
This will not, of course, affect any UK stable industries at all, or cause them to close down… and as that’s a politicians’ promise someone else must be to blame, probably those who pointed out that the politicians are crooked, stupid arses.
Waterboard the beast
Classify the dead horse in an offshore bank account as a tax loss.
How true.
Bravo! lol xxx and laughing rather loudly. Dave.
Create a multi trillion market of dead horse derivatives. That will kick start the economy
I thought they had beatified the dead horse.
No they made him Prime Minister. LOL.
How about flogging a dead horse.
Or …
..just pretend it’s a dead donkey
did someone mention Mr Ploppy? – I do Mr Ploppys
HoL priviledge where’mine and Sarah’s my Knighthood?’
Blame the dead horse on Margaret Thatcher and then borrow 600bn quid to buy votes.
This one bears repe*ating:
Little Lakota Boy: “Father, how do Lakota people get their names?”
Lakota Father: “Why do you ask, Buffalo Chips?”
Better one ….
Lakota Father: “Why do you ask, two dogs shagging?”
I’m cancelling my subscription, Fawkes.
cowboy looks down to see little Lakota boy with ear to ground
“what you doing down there ?”
“stagecoach past 2 hours ago”
” hey that’s clever how do you know that ?”
“it ran over my fucking neck”
Don’t worry, the germans will buy them a new horse.
Which the French will eat.
Abe Lincoln told a similar story about a man who wouldn’t leave his wagon after one of the two horses had died.
He would not unload some cargo, fearing it would be stolen, even though by doing so his one horse would have been able to pull the rest of it.
He did not ride for help and back on the horse, although he could have been quite quick, fearing the same cargo stolen and losing all of it.
He just sat upon his wagon whipping the live and the dead horse and hoping somehow the wagon would move.
“I believe he is still there, to this day.”

Intresting little piece I came across this morning,
“If the Islamic Republic was not present in Syria, the massacre of civilians would have been twice as bad,” General Ismail Qa’ani, deputy-commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards’ Qods Force, told Tehran’s ISNA news agency.
Iran, he added, “Had physically and non-physically stopped the rebels from killing many more among the Syrian people.”
Does this confirm that the islamic republic of phuckwits are active in syria
doubtless responsible for the latest massacre too
What can we expect – we intervene when we think we have justification! – Armani Dinnerjacket is not flavour of the month with the bearded wonders at home, so this works as a nice “fuck the west!” distraction.
His intervention with “advisors”, “monitors”, “peace keepers” whatever you want to call his mercenaries is intended to make any potential western backed resistance in Syria, much more dangerous for us to confront Arsehead.
She has my full support – but does Nick, my boss, agree?
I wish to report Baroness Warsi for fiddling her expenses, Parliamentary Standards Commissioner. Her behaviour is disgraceful. Boaz.
http://therantingkingpenguin.blogspot.co.uk/2010/10/handycock-rides-gravy-train.html
Thank you Mike. I will investigate this matter and report back in just over six months time that I do not have the powers to investigate. Must rush having my morning suit let out for Ascot. Jahbluon.
I’m trying to think if there is an ethnic Asian member of the Lords who has not tried to play fast and loose with public money. Ahmed, Paul, Uddin, Warsi……
Are there any members of HoL who are not on some sort of fiddle?
I know what you’re thinking – ‘did UK governments fire 5 ethnics or 6 for fraud?’
Bearing in mind they have a cultural background that could chop your head clean off, ask yourself – like ‘impartial BBC Thompson’ – do you feel lucky, punk?
Well, do you?
.
.
Oh, and looking at my timesheets I wonder just how ‘ethnic’ must Jacqui Smith be for ‘staying’ at her sisters?
At least the smug self satisfied look has been wiped off her unelectable face.
Warsi was over promoted by shallow callow Dave for two reasons only:
Her sex
Her religion
Thats it.
Another nail in Camerons coffin – he really is a useless judge of character. Look at the omnishambles of a team he picked.
One term Dave is toast.
Vote UKIP.
+ 1000!
“At least the smug self satisfied look has been wiped off her unelectable face……”
OED definition: Looking slightly blairy
Dave appointed her for her sex? – does she really give good sex? – I know fat girls have to try that little bit harder but I think this seems quite implauasible (if not just repulsive)

Definition #2.
I’m always learning new things on this site – quite an appropriate description
I have a funny feeling that it’s the same at UKIP HQ these days as well – Sophie seems to be giving constant handjobs to them at the drop of a Nigel.
+several thousand!
This is pricesless….warned you about woeful warsi for years….enjoy the downfall….and all she will take with her….coz that is what Her SORT do.
LOL modded….
Strange should you not be down the dhss at this time of day filling out your sponging form

If I can get on ‘Britain’s Got Talent’, I’ll show all you fuckers how to do the books.
I’ll get this Country out of the shit AND put loads of fivers your way.
Got her bang to rights
Cheers Guido !
Is this because she said something about a ‘favoured’ groups ‘rights’ to bang?
Transparent ploy/first line of defence – invite investigation of self/alleged wrongdoing in order to be able to be` unable to comment while investigation is ongoing’.
But this one ain’t going away. If she really did pay the Spad, did her overnight expenses claims tally with what she paid him? Does she have receipts for the hotels where she allegedly stayed? Do those receipts, in turn, match what she allegedly paid the Spad? Did the Spad declare it as income? Too many simple and checkable things to answer.
My guess is that she ‘ll stand down hoping that it will be enough to prevent a full and detailed examination of her conduct. Tho’ plod might get round to making a formal investigation. Either way, Bye-Bye Warsi!
Bye bye blackbird…
This one seems a complete non-story. I expected better of this site.
You’re new here, aren’t you?
Genny, his surname is probably Dover.
FFS.
Another scrounging expenses cheat.
There can be no excuses, its theft of taxpayers hard earned monies.
If anything i feel that we put ALL our politicians up against a wall and shoot them en masse, its the only solution to an ingrained poblem.
Hey Louise, how about it?
Your cookies are still on…Naughty Naughty
Furthermore is the wife of Graham Brady’s ( 1922 cockmittiees cheif ) still claiming £45K in expenses to open her husbands posts.
No! For opening his flies
This beggars belief
Naweed Khan?
As a non-landlord, he was’nt entitled to any money.
The land-lord says he did’nt receive any money, sounds like a case of ‘theft’.
That is odd, but possible.
If my dad gives me a house for free, and I rent out a room, that doesnt sound unreasonable. If for some reason my dad’s mate owes us a big favour, and gives me a house for free, it might also be possible for me to rent out a room. Sort of assumes that the person giving out the free house, really is giving the house to me, to do with it as I please.
and uncle Tom Cobley and all.
Get rid of the thieving whore. She isn’t even a Conservative. She has not advanced the Tory cause one inch
I’m getting fed up of limp-wristed, sentimental, lentil-eating hippies like you!
Is the income necessarily taxable?
Would it have been possible to claim Rent-a-room relief? Furthermore if no charge is requested but a contribution is made, is this taxable? Is this not comparable to footballers testimonials?
Not saying there isn’t any issue here, but aren’t there more blatant abuses such as Uddin who should be pursued?
Leave her alone- she and I have a lot in common.
As the evidence builds things appear to be going from bad to Warsi for the
noble baroness.
Her Bombay Goose is cooked…..
“Lady Warsi claims she was a guest of Mr Khan, who she gave an “appropriate financial payment equivalent to what I was paying at the time in hotel costs”.”
“Dr Moustafa said he allowed the two to stay there as a favour and never asked for any money”
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/mps-expenses/conservative-mps-expenses/9294674/Baroness-Warsi-asks-Lords-Commissioner-for-Standards-to-probe-her-expenses.html
well also Dr Moustafa fell out with warsi, so this all looks a bit mucky, If the Spad declares on oath that the baroness paid him in cash what the equivalent rent was then she will be ok. The labour party have jumped on a passing bandwagen over this thye seem to keep demanding the opposition resigns over the smallest issue, seeing chukka umma on the TV yesterday the interviewer should have asked him why he used an offshore fund to buy his house.
Indeed, it does depend on wither Khan backs her obvious cover story and takes any liability. He’s probably accustomed to dodgy dealings…could be a bit more than a ‘small issue’,£10K+ (?)
This crowd don’t do “favours” where kaffirs (or their money) are involved!
You are little Nell, and I claim my free turnip.
On TV, was it the BBC – do grow up.
I Was speaking to my good friend Jackie Smith the other day and we agreed that the Baroness has absolutely nothing to worry about. We got away with far worse so she should be fine.
Ah, but if it was about money then you two troughers would have been in the BBC’s sights.
For the PC crowd Warsi is guilty of breaking ranks for telling some truths the BBC didn’t like, truths the propagandist BBC desperately try to manipulate or hide in their reporting!
That’s why more and more people are getting their news from the internet and RT.
BBC really will end up in a bind over Islam, praising its existence, values and lack of corruption, even here in the UK, yet be at odds with even a sniff of feminist values being trod on in UK society, no matter how tenuous. Of course any woman who gets there through personal ability is less valued than a quota fulfilling make-weight. Ask Maggie.
BREAKING
Protester gets into secure judges corridior/area of Court at Leveson Inquiry and shouts accusations at Blair….You are a War Criminal and take money from JP Morgan etc etc !!! before being hustled out of court by assorted court ushers and police whilst Blair’s security people form shield in front of bemused Tony who immediately after man is taken out totally refutes allegations made whilst clearly embarrassed Lord Leveson apolgises to him and says he wants answers from officials etc how this occurred…Top News item at 1pm then !!!!
No.
compared with Murdich who has not killed anyone blair is the worse sort of labour leader. I find it very funny that all those that supported him in 1997 at the BBC and the Guardian are now stating the opposite. John Major may have been a grey politician but he did less harm than blair and also margaret thatcher only invaded the falklands to get it back. It Takes a labour politician to be a real murderer.
Murdoch not killed anyone? His press was a leading cheerleader for attacking Iraq and
Afghanistan.
Cheerleader or not, he still didn’t kill anyone. Neither did he have the authority to order troops into battle. On the other hand Blair did.
Good man!
Yep – fuck ‘em.
Crosshairs please Guido

So Camoron is throwing the idiots who got caught not playing the easy trough claims to keep the public off his yellow back from complaining about him, so why is Bliar not in jail instead of using the violins telling his lawyer mates how great he was while he was destroying the country and where are his emails, mail, telephone recordings , expense claims forms anything else that a piece of crap could use to write a another book about his lies.
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
Any sufficiently advanced stupidity is indistinguishable from malice.
I don’t want that idiot Milibrain shrieking for a recall of parliament again.
That little pip squeak has form on calling for resignations and recess ending recalls during the holidays…erm..I mean..during the important constituency business period.
So, Labour, as we are all already on the beaches, lets be grown up about it.
You want a scalp.
If we ever had a vote of on who’s the most expandable in the party, Warsi would win it.
So lets all agree. You STFU and be quiet while we all enjoy two weeks in Nice.
When we come back we’ll help you toss her on that bonfire you’ve already got lit for Brookes?
OK?
Expendable i meant.
Not expandable..Although..who knows?
By the look of her recently, if she carries on expanding she’ll turn into Eric Pickles with a Gunt.
Who?
He is a major player in world politics – he has 265 followers on Twitter – my son has more & he is still at school
Tony Blair branded a ‘war criminal’ by protester who bursts into Leveson Inquiry.

Why do you say “•As a non-landlord this income is taxable”?
The rent a room scheme allows £4250 pa rent before it is declarable, and applies to both owned and rented homes. I see nothing specific about homes provided ‘rent free’ being excluded.
I’ll check that out with her with the brains
Hunt is in the frame for abusing public office.
Osborne is in the frame for leaking market sensitive information surrounding Newscorp.
Cameron is trying to find time to be coached by lawyers at a public inquiry.
Yet all the Press seem to want to talk about is some Asian woman who appears to have been promoted above her station by Cameron.
The original story seems to have centred around her failure to disclose some rental income to HOL which had nevertheless been disclosed to HOC and The Revenue. When this looked a bit thin the story turned to her claiming subsistence allowances.
An all too convenient smoke screen?
BURN THE WITCH!!!!!
What is it about politicos and their special advisers? Billy Hague and that nice young man and now the fragrant Baronessa nd these two “”gentlemen”.
Still, at last your society is vibrant, modern and multi culti with honor killings, politicians stealing public money to pay their supporters and just to liven things up the odd witchcraft murder of a child.
Thanks be that you have finally abandoned the wicked ways of those white christian who told the truth loved their Queen and Country and showed neither fear nor favor to anyone else. Remember when the House of lords was full of Ladies and Gentlemen?
Definitely time for further Lords’ reform. We need more effnicks and more wimmin. cos they is more inclusive innit?
“Where was the hotel she is using as a comparison,”
If she’s smart it’ll be the Ashcroft yacht Hague stayed on in Havana.

Time for a well earned siesta?
Well this is the only tory website he doesn’t own.
I heard Warsi make some comment yesterday along the lines of ” this matter will be refered to the Parliamentary standards commissionaire who will investigate it in the usual way ”
But thats the problem !
