Another minister out but still in
http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2011/oct/17/jonathan-djanogly-stripped-power-ambulance-chasers

The justice minister, Jonathan Djanogly, has been stripped of his responsibility to regulate firms that "ambulance chase" the public following a Guardian investigation that revealed how he and his family could profit from controversial changes to legal aid he was piloting in parliament.

2. Yet another corrupt bastard.
>> Jonathan Djanogly's children were shareholders in his brother-in-law's
>> claims management companies – part of an industry the justice minister
>> regulated in government.

>> Djanogly, the heir to a £300m family business ...

>> Djanogly has at least £250,000 in shares in companies with insurance
>> subsidiaries and is a member of his family's Lloyds underwriting partnership ...
>> He has been entitled to a £41,000 a year from that partnership, known as
>> the Djanogly Family LLP.

Fucking banana republic morality.

3. It's like one of those old spot the ball competitions.
