Could spend the end of Labour as the quid pro quo is the end of Union subs for Labour MPs.

Minutes of a key telephone call about a contract awarded to Randox after it employed Owen Paterson as a consultant have been lost, a minister says.
MPs were told details of the conference call could not be found – just one hour after Boris Johnson bowed to pressure to release details of the contracts.

Between whom was the conference call?

Does that matter? It was minuted, and as soon as it was about to be released the minutes got eaten by the dog.

Conference calls are minuted.

Does it matter who minutes them? This one was minuted and was about to be released. Suddenly it got lost behind the sofa. The story is not how the minutes came to be. The story is about how the government suddenly managed to leave them on the bus when the teacher asked for them.

Conference calls are minuted. Are they? I hold them every day of the week. Never minuted. Occasionally recorded.

Why would the government have said that they'd release the minutes, and that they'd lost the minutes, if there never were any minutes?

Did they say they would "release the minutes" or is that a bit of journalistic licence in the absence of any minutes, which may or may not have been taken at an unspecified meeting?

Do we have a link to the story about these "missing minutes"?

I have no idea. I'm just taking OOTLG's word for it on the second post on this page. Which, I accept, might be foolish on my part.

I think we probably all recognise an OOTLG fever dream.
