David Cameron texted ministers and officials 62 times as he desperately lobbied for Greensill Capital, it was revealed yesterday. Just before the pandemic struck, Mr Cameron and Mr Greensill met Saudi Arabia's de facto ruler, Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, and they went on a 'desert camping trip' together. David Cameron's financier boss said he took full responsibility for the failure of Greensill Capital earlier this year. Mr Greensill said all major financial institutions now offer supply chain finance, which involves paying suppliers early then collecting the money from their customers. Another Labour MP on the committee, Siobhain McDonagh, asked him: 'Mr Greensill, are you a fraudster?'
