Interesting woman
A career politician: now out of the cabinet, with a string of disastrous and badly managed IT projects behind her. NHSfIT & MTAS finally earnt her the long walk.
Met her several times at various trade shows and pr-lobbyist lunch-fests, back when Labour was trying to win pals in industry. She has a splendid Mrs Thatch' way about her. She always takes 3 questions from the audience, then answers a completely different question that she herself poses. So 3 jobs, outside the full time one we pay her, for shouldn;t be a problem.
So probably not corrupt in a legal sense, but self serving and morally reprehensible like the rest of her expensed up, private interested, gin soaked hypocritical colleagues on both sides of the house. The message "Stuff the tax payers and the people of Leicester, I need an income when we get booted"
Saying all that, she's an operator and certainly built up a huge base of 'favours' when a minister; as long as BT don;t get her to run anything! she'll oil the wheels well and that will be a good investment of the shareholders £60k.
