>The mayor of Liverpool, Joe Anderson, has been arrested as part of a fraud investigation and suspended from the Labour party.
>Anderson, who has led Liverpool for a decade, was one of five men arrested across Merseyside on Friday in an investigation into building and development contracts in the city. He is being interviewed by police on suspicion of conspiracy to commit bribery and witness intimidation.
What is it with local politicians and corrupt housing developments? I feel like we were trained as children to oppose those taking money from big business to dump green ooze in the river when in reality it was houses all the way down.
Not before time. Local politics in Liverpool is notoriously corrupt and hasn't really recovered from the old Militant days. Just a shame that it only happened when Big Joe seemed to be redeeming himself.
You got me all excited there. I wonder whether he's a capitalist property developer or a socialist builder this week. Maybe he's just Schrodinger's Twat, existing in a quantum superposition between the two.
It turns out that Degsy is actually the 72-year-old implicated in this, and Anderson's own son is the 33-year-old. They're all fucked politically, at the very least.
