The political hardliner now turned anti-corruption czar has extended his wings beyond our shores to the Turks and Caicos Islands, where his very checkered past is not well known. Watch for the explosion when they discover that the newly found holier-than-thou persona was no angel in times past.

A Pepper Pot reader’s response

Dear Pepper Pot,

Last week you wrote about companies needing to be careful of their rogue officers whose corrupt activities the companies ultimately have to be accountable for. You cited Sandals as an example. That is nothing new. I work in a bank and you would not know how many incidents we in the banking sector have had to take responsibility for when officers dip into people’s money. We have had to put in millions of dollars worth of security measures to try to prevent it. We keep it quiet, unlike Sandals, but ask any senior banking executive who is not afraid to speak.
