Greensill was the supply chain finance giant that appointed Call Me Dave Cameron as a well paid advisor after he stopped being PM. He was paid vast sums to lobby the various Tory Governments that followed his own to assist Greensill. Greensill then went spectacularly bust. Now it seems that the administrators have clawed back £71 million in the form of a settlement agreed out of court paid by auditors Saffreys.

Gosh I miss my late uncle Chris and our hour long, weekly, chats that would just go on and on skipping from topic to topic almost seamlessly. He may have founded Private Eye but we both did the jokes. We both have a history of falling out with folks and made sure that we had no such bust ups so if we disagreed as we did just now and again there was always a workaround. So we disagreed on Brexit as he regarded me as a “no deal” hard line fruitcake and I wore that badge with honour. But rather than debate it we just agreed that Theresa May was the worst Prime Minister in history, laughed and moved on. Back in the nineties those chats would see us spending some time on Tory sleaze. You remember that MP who shared a bed with another chap and said he was doing it to save money? The jokes wrote themselves back then.
