This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition Order an immediate full disclosure inquiry into why Andrew Mitchell reinstated GBP8m aid to Rwanda on his last day in office, against officials advice
More details
There could be 3 reasons: 1 - it was a demonstration of his arrogance in that he was empowered to make such decisions because he considers that his is the only opinion which counts - The Hubris Syndrome. 2 - It was an attempt to further damage the financial state of the country as a reaction to him being told that he was being move from DFID to Chief Whip, demonstrating a complete arrogant disregard for the welfare of anybody but himself. 3 - It was a final opportunity for him or a member of his family with business connections to Rwanda to 'make a few bob' out of Andrew Mitchells proclivity to giving government contracts to people or organisations he knows.
The first 2 show a mental health problem which means he should never be in charge of other people's money, ever again. The 3rd is illegal, for which he should be put in jail.
