Keith Vaz

blimey, gonna be some epic polish...
 
I lose faith in British sense of right and wrong when I read how decisions made by our 'unaccountable' Social services can get well meaning 71 yr old Grand mum jailed for doing the best thing and Keith Vaz carries on in the Public eye as though nothing has happened.
 
All MPs, and especially the 203 who voted for him, share the blame for him still being there.
 
The holidaymakers were on holiday. He was doing this:

“Keith visited Tunisia from the 2-4th September to investigate the counter terrorism situation.”

Odious though he is, he needs to be hanged for the right crimes :)
 
ah yes those highly important fact finding trips

(they never tend to be in places like Haverhill or Gdansk)
[EDIT ... apologies, I believe I'm doing Gdansk a disservice]

Something dodgy about Bercow too.
 
Vaz probe suspended on medical grounds

Parliament's standards watchdog has halted an investigation into allegations about the private life of MP Keith Vaz "for medical reasons".

Bet he's relieved.

For Vas to remain an MP he must have some really great serious dirt on many others . The guy is a serous cancer in politics and it seems untouchable .

Depends on what his illness is and how long it lasts. Perhaps he should be sent to a Work Capability Assessment. If he's too ill to be investigated, he might to be too ill to fulfil his role as an MP.
 
Vaz Promised to "Only Accept a Worker's Wage" -

Keith Vaz promised to “only accept a worker’s wage” when he was in the process of becoming an MP, Guido can reveal. Vaz is under renewed pressure over his finances after the National Crime Agency was asked to launch an Unexplained Wealth Order investigation by Tory MP Andrew Bridgen. According to newspaper reports published before his election in 1987:

“Secretary of Richmond and Barnes Labour Party Keith Vaz has been selected as Labour candidate for the Leicester East constituency… Mr Vaz is going to live and work in Leicester in the run up to the election. He said that if elected he will only accept a worker’s wage and donate the rest of his parliamentary salary to the local Labour Party.”

Keith Vaz is Not a Fit and Proper Person for Parliament's Justice Committee -

Many will say that the dishonesty in his private life is a matter for him and his wife. Putting the prostitutes and the question of attempting to procure illegal drugs aside, if we must, there is the fact that as slippery as Vaz is, he has still managed to get caught for the following;

  • He was suspended from parliament for making false allegations against the Parliamentary Standards Commissioner.
  • It was found that he had given false information to the Standards and Privileges Committee and Elizabeth Filkin about his financial relationship to the Hinduja brothers.
  • Failing to register his paid employment at the Leicester Law Centre when he first entered parliament in 1987.
  • Failing to register a donation from the Caparo group in 1993.
  • Failing to register complimentary hospitality and hotel rooms supplied by Indian tycoon Joginder Sanger which he used for encounters with young men in 2013 and 2014.
  • He denied receiving cash from from a solicitor, Sarosh Zaiwalla. He was later found to have received £4,500 and censured as a result.
  • He has previously been found in Contempt of the House.
  • He lobbied against the extradition of the Anglo-Iraqi billionaire Nadhmi Auchi to France when he was in the pay of one of his companies.
  • He was described by then MP Patrick Mercer, as “a crook of the first order”,when recruiting him to his TV sting exposé inspired APPG. Mercer had chosen to recruit him because he said he had “never met an operator like him… I mean it’s not always completely ethical, but it’s stunning, he is an operator”.
  • Despite living just 45 minutes from Westminster Vaz claimed expenses for a Westminster flat.
  • Prostitutes were paid off by an employee of Vaz’s charity.
  • For some reason Leicestershire police, despite considering a range of possible offences including; wasteful employment of the police, attempting to pervert the course of justice and road traffic offences, have failed to prosecute him. Ordinary police officers felt he was untouchable by virtue of his position of influence on the Home Affairs Committee. Putting him on the Justice Committee risks repeating that error of judgement.

I wouldn't be surprised if Crispin Blunt is subscribed to this thread considering the frequent presence of 'Poppers' ....
 
BBC News - How John Bercow keeps Keith Vaz's secrets
How John Bercow keeps Keith Vaz's secrets

Readers may recall that we have reported extensively on how Mr Vaz's behaviour on committee trips abroad, paid for by the taxpayer, were the scene for some allegations of not following the rules of the House and bullying towards staff.

Mr Vaz denies all such actions. But we wished to see what documentation existed from the administration of these trips. We cannot.

This is because Mr Bercow has personally intervened and gone out of his way to bar Newsnight from asking the Information Commissioner or a judge to review the decision. We will not be able to overturn this decision, as journalists fought through the courts to get to see MPs' expenses.


The net result is that the Speaker, who denies bullying, has made an order to hide information about the behaviour of his close personal friend, Keith Vaz, a man who also denies bullying - supposedly to protect MPs' freedom of speech.

And then he has gone out of his way to use a personal veto to make sure no-one could even consider reviewing that questionable decision.

You can understand why staff are so suspicious about whether MPs will ever let themselves be judged by outsiders when it comes to bullying and harassment.
 
I believe Vax is still under investigation, two years and counting... Why is the rent boy/coke/washing machine case so difficult. It was even on video?
