Indeed we will.
I will not be holding my breath ...............

This suggests that they get quite a bit wrong.

I can't read that without registration. I meant that most of their government sources seem to supply reliable leaks.

Err, what Times are you referring to? Tide Times? The Moscow Daily Times? They're very reliable.

And yet you quote a Times report?

There's another piece in the Times about Priti Patel, which includes gems like this:
"“When she took over the Home Office, Rutnam had engendered a culture where they didn’t want to do anything. He was just dreadful and I can see clearly that she might have become frustrated with that.”"
And:
"The inquiry also found that she did not receive the support she needed from senior civil servants."
Plus much more besides.

Is Priti Patel a victim of racism, misogyny and unfair treatment?

Bullying tactics! Oh my, are you making an accusation of bullying?
You've just hung yourself.
Now come on, you have to agree your whole presentation of your case on here has been pretty much to establish that 'bullying' does not exist ...
You're a hoot ... I'll give you that. Do you never ever read what you write?
Patel is the victim of bullying now?
You do have a penchant for twisting things.

Okay ... seen as you've asked (not so nicely) .. I'll offer what I believe is an unreserved apology ...
"I have clearly upset you and on reflection - and I have had time to reflect upon this as well - looking at what has been published today on this forum, there is no question I'm absolutely sorry for the upset that I've caused you and I'm very, very clear about that."

It's a headline summary. Other news media are quoting the Times. Are you saying that the article is reporting something that contradicts the headline? Because that would be a first.

I will make my own mind up if Boris ever publishes the inquiry report.

Me too Annie ..... shouting, swearing and now allegedly she herself is the victim of bullying, racism, misogyny and unfair treatment.
Either way ... it does not look good after all the recent reported infighting behind closed Downing Street doors.
