Wasn't Soames involved with the drug firm that made NAPS? And if my fading memory serves me, there was a conflict of interest that he didn't declare with said firm?
I stand to be corrected.
There is another individual that should be considered - MP Crispin Blunt
Crispin Blunt MP | Working for you... A decent chap who served with the 13/18 Royal Hussars. Albeit, he left after GW1, but at least he would have a good understanding of what we do and has had his hands blooded.
