Actually, suspicious might be a better word.

Without wishing to put too fine a point of it, Grant Schapps (or his alter ego of Michael Green if you prefer) is totally unfit to hold public office. Come to think of it I wouldn't even trust that man in any position of responsibility.

He's the very worst senior Tory right now, and that's saying something when you've got ministers like Jeremy Hunt and Owen Paterson.

'the police confirmed that "legal advice … concluded that the selling of the software may constitute an offence of fraud" but that officers had decided not to instigate a criminal investigation.'

'A spokesperson for Shapps said the case was closed and police comments had been taken out of context: "Any suggestion of illegality would be completely improper and malicious and would be treated as such."'

Any suggestion an offence of fraud is illegal would be improper and malicious? The Tory Party wants to legalise fraud, now?
