“He failed to properly disclose”, that’s one way of saying that he bareface lied.
Its OK though he’s going to pay some of it himself so that the tax payer only has to cough up £8k.
He should be forced to pay it all and sacked.

The amount of times I’ve told clients to change their SIM or not take their work phone abroad only to be ignored like usual, and get called on their return saying “what the hell!?” We notified them, but just like all MSPs (managed service providers) CEOs or important members will just ignore us or criticise our advice. Now he wants to blame his family who shouldn’t even have access as you mentioned. If it’s his mistake, he allowed it to happen with warning, and he gave this to a family member unsecured, surely he should be held entirely accountable?
Nope. Politicians breaking all the rules we would get sacked for in an instant at work, or even arrested.
Great standards for us lowly law abiding poor folk. An 11k phone bill would kill me; I guess my taxes will pay for his mistake then. I’m so confused how he doesn’t feel like he needs to pay that? I can’t figure out how in the fucking world what I’d need to say or do or think to avoid being responsible for that?
It’s surely simple for him to figure out. Goes to show how warped morals are being protected here.
The real question is, why is that even possible?
Ever watched porn while roaming outside of your mobile plan. Shit adds up fast.

In most developing countries you can buy a SIM card with a decent data plan for a very low price. If you rack up a huge roaming bill in this day and age you’re simply an idiot.
Or alternatively not taking the mobile operators side - being able to charge £10000 data costs to stream a couple of football matches worth of data shouldn’t be allowed.
In what possible way does that price come anywhere close to the costs of the providers in servicing that data?
It’s almost like there were no real consequences he would face so he didn’t care.
This is what it’s like to be rich, entitled and without remorse or consequence for any of your actions. They don’t consider the obvious because they consider themselves above it.
In a truly developed country you would not have to do anything, roaming would be free.
