Imcompetence or cover up?

I feel that some of these posts are getting a tad repetitive, but when you have a government that is so intent at covering its own arse all the time you start to see why. Yesterday Jack Dromey, the treasurer of the Labour party claimed not to know anything about the donations to his party.

That poses a question, what exactly does he know? After all he is the treasurer, he sees the money, he has to account for it. That's what treasurers do! Its not the first time that he's used this defence, after he claimed that he knew nothing about the loans that prompted the cash for peerages investigation.

So if a treasurer doesn't know what money is coming into his party that leads to a range of scenarios. They could be that he is simply incompetent and cannot account for anything. Or, he is telling the truth and someone in the party is deliberatly keeping the treasurer in the dark. Or, he knows all about it and is turning a blind eye.

Either way something very murky is going on with Labour's finances and an "internal" enquiry will only come up with one of two results. The first is "nothing to see here move along", or "a junior member of staff was responsible and they will be sacked". Can you see where I'm going with this!
