Peter – or Baron, as for now we must call him – Cruddas was once a Treasurer of the Conservative Party. In March 2012 the Sunday Times published a rather mean piece about him which included the claim that (as the Court put it) “in return for cash donations to the Conservative Party, [he] corruptly offered for sale the opportunity to influence government policy and gain unfair advantage through secret meetings with the Prime Minister and other senior ministers.” He sued the Sunday Times for defamation and, to be fair to him, he won but the Court of Appeal also said the claim above was substantially true. As a candidate for a great honour you would think he was, well, you would think he was an odd one. On the other hand, he is Very Rich. And he has given quite a lot of money to the Conservative Party: over £3m. He gave a quarter of a million quid to them on 10 January 2020 and a few weeks later it emerged he’d been nominated as a Baron by Boris Johnson. He was crowned, or whatever happens to them, ‘Baron’ Cruddas on 2 February 2021 and a few days later, on 5 February 2021, he gave the Tories another half a million. We’re not saying any of this was pre-arranged – there’s no evidence of that and buying and selling peerages is a crime – but the timing of it all is, well, it is odd. Given his past record, the House of Lords Appointments Commission thought he wasn’t the kind of man we should be giving a peerage to. And it advised Boris Johnson not to make him a Baron. But Boris did anyway – making history by ignoring the Appointments Commission for the first time ever. We don’t only think it is odd. We also think it is unlawful. We think a fair-minded and informed observer, presented with the facts of the matter, would conclude that there was a real possibility or danger of bias in the Defendant’s decision making. We also think that the Prime Minister took legally irrelevant considerations – past donations and the prospect of future donations – into account in making him a Baron. And so we’re suing. We’ve instructed Bindmans LLP, Dan Squires QC and Alice Irving. You can read our letter here. Make no mistake, we intend to issue proceedings. But this time, we’re not setting up a crowdfunder. What we’d really like you to do instead is (1) sign our petition
( https://actions.goodlawproject.org/peerages?recruiter_id=363701 ) calling for him to be stripped of his peerage and (2) share this update with your friends and family.

Rosie - maybe you are right, broke rank for a prank! maybe there was £5 bet.
Maria - the demo yesterday was great, noisy and I am sure they didn't go unnoticed by those behind closed doors at No10. Its also sends a message that
the natives are angry and the one that really bites home is the popularity scale, its
well down. When you say Demo's of that calibre every day can wear them down lets not forget the strength and the will power of those driven by power greed and money who have already signed the deal of destruction of the human race under the cover of climate change. They are on a mission to save everything except those they consider of no use in their scheme of things. Its turned the mind into a condition of insanity that cannot be turned back and they are happy with the results so far, people are dying, they are in control, they are on the way to success, but for how long remains to be seen and we don't quit.
Signed but they all are as corrupt. No signature required to get rid off the whole parliament ?
They are laughing at all the zombies but also at us, as we think we know all but we are not fighting against it and deciding enough is enough.
Usual fuckery
Signed!
