There's a few of them have shares in private health care companies too. Shabana Mahmood first one I looked at there is a director in Alhuda Healthcare. It would be an idea to look at all our MPs vested interests.

That’s him all over. BBC were wrong but to say it’s ruined his reputation is laughable!
Whilst I get the edits were wrong, the words were his, he created an uprising in his own country. He made a call to arms, to fight against an election result he didn’t like.
Whatever the BBC/Panorama did is nothing compared to inciting violence on your own people.
It was a massive temper tantrum!

The UK gov should issue an international arrest warrant to get her back and put a charge or whatever on some of her assets to clear what she owes.
Of course she has. The small matter of owing £122 million to UK taxpayers for her disgusting profiteering in a global pandemic means nothing to Michelle Mone.
