Tessa Jowell

Jowell is a Labour politician. Her old man, one David Mills is a light fingered rogue who set up off shore companies for Silvio Berlusconi, an Italian politician. One might ask why an Italian crook used an English crook rather than one of his own.

It seems that she objected to Labour letting tobacco advertisers use Formula 1 racing as a vehicle. But Labour took a £1 million bung from Bernie Ecclestone to stop them banning tobacco adverts and Blair lied about it.

 

New Labour crooks are the New Corruption. Why does an Italian criminal use an English criminal to defraud the authorities when Italy has its very own expertise in treachery and corruption? Mills is a better liar. Mill's sister was the Director of Public Prosecutions so he is a well connected crook.

Tessa Jowell's Husband Took Bribes And Committed Perjury
QUOTE
Mills was found guilty by a Milan appeals court of taking a bribe in exchange for lying under oath to protect Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. Mills had appealed a conviction and sentence to serve four years and six months in prison. Mills is appealing…

 

Tessa Jowell spends a lot of time in the village of Darlingscote where David Mills, her supposedly estranged husband lives.  So she still finds him appealing.

Jowell Stops Pretending She Is Not Married To Thief [ 20 September 2012 ]
QUOTE
She separated from her husband after he was accused of taking a bribe from Silvio Berlusconi – but yesterday Dame Tessa Jowell admitted that the couple were reconciled. The former Labour culture secretary and her wealthy tax lawyer husband David Mills [ alleged that they ] parted in 2006. Although they never divorced, the former marital home in Kentish Town, north London, was sold........
Breaking her silence about her marital woes for the first time, Dame Tessa, 65, said that parting from Mills, her second husband, broke her heart. And she robustly denied suggestions that she had ditched her marriage for the sake of her career in government.....

Explaining the background to the split, when Mills found himself engulfed in Italian bribery allegations, Dame Tessa told Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour: ‘He reached the view that life was intolerable while we were together and, as he put it to me: “You’re my problem, I’m you’re problem” and we separated. It broke my heart.’........ Mills was found guilty of accepting a £350,000 bribe in return for providing false testimony for Berlusconi in two corruption trials concerning the Italian’s time as a businessman. The conviction was later thrown out on a technicality........ She was dragged into her husband’s controversial financial affairs in 2006 when it emerged that she had signed papers for a loan secured on their London home – which was subsequently paid off with the help of the alleged bribe.

Just why did Berlusconi use an English lawyer to set up his off shore companies when there are plenty of corrupt Italians? Why was Mills convicted but more to the point how did he get away with it? Why did high power woman decide to play the Silly Little Woman Card? Why did Jowell pretend to separate after he was fingered? Why was she seen with him so often notwithstanding? Why did Blair let her get away with it? Because she knew about the skeletons in his cupboard perhaps? There was that £1 million backhander/gift/brown envelope/bribe/sweetener/doucer/bung/political donation from Bernie Ecclestone to stop them banning tobacco adverts which Blair lied about.
