Nigel Farage's right-hand man facing allegations of hypocrisy for claiming to have "tripled the share price" of a company he ran - when in fact he did not. Shares in CLS Holdings rose from 52.5p to 125.1p on his watch, an impressive increase, but far from "tripling".

You'd think after the Post Office scandal Fujitsu would be the last company the govt would do business with. But no. As Lord Arbuthnot says, "it sends the message that the country doesn’t care about Fujitsu's unethical behaviour in the Post Office scandal".
