PM slapdown on charity job

A POWERFUL MPs’ panel has delivered an unprecedented snub to Theresa May over the new head of the Charities Commission.

The Prime Minister had wanted Tory stalwart Baroness Tina Stowell.

But she could not “withstand scrutiny”, said Tory Damian Collins, chairman of the Culture Committee.

She failed to “demonstrate any real insight, knowledge or vision” for the watchdog, he added in a brutal letter to Culture Secretary Matt Hancock.
