I think I'll wait and see on this one
Never assign to malice that which can be explained by incompetence. The government was clueless and sprayed money around in a panic. Some people undeservedly got some and I believe HMRC and others are having a good look at some of the payments.
The Good Law Project also seems to have a habit of losing or dropping cases. The one they put up against Kate Bingham was quietly dropped. I'll have more confidence in this bunch when people start actually appearing in court instead of videos on Twitter.

I agree 100%
much as I think this government is a disaster for the UK, I see nothing but propaganda here. Spin presented as fact.

I'm not saying you're wrong
I think you've got a good point but as far as The Good Law project losing cases, that's not an issue. They gather evidence, present cases and some are strong enough to go before a judge and some have won. Even if they've got a very small success rate the bar for prosecution's pretty high and shining a light on incompetence, corruption of that blurry line where they become one and the same is vital for the sake of of all of us.
I guess if you're spraying money around in a panic most of it'll go to the people you know best, your business connections, colleagues, donors etc. but that's still a corrupt process. Thoughtless, unplanned, random, incompetent corruption is still... corruption.
