Chapter 136: The Stockport Scandal

All major news channels suddenly cancelled their scheduled late-night programs and switched to live coverage from Stockport. Initially, they had been cautious after receiving a tip-off... shockingly, from within the opposition party... about potential criminal activities involving one of their own MPs, Oliver Brown. Only a few networks sent news crews to the area around Oliver Brown’s house, choosing a wait-and-see approach rather than breaking the story prematurely.

That changed rapidly.

A large police convoy unexpectedly arrived at Oliver Brown’s residence and cordoned off the entire area. Floodlights were switched on, armed officers formed a perimeter, and forensic teams moved in. That was all the confirmation the media needed. Almost every major outlet went live at once.

Within minutes, newsrooms across the country received a press release from the Chairman of the Opposition Party. The statement confirmed that Oliver Brown had been temporarily removed from all party positions. Whether he would be permanently expelled would be decided after a full investigation. The timing of the statement was deliberate, designed to align perfectly with the start of the police operation.

Inside the house, police discovered a shocking amount of evidence. A vast collection of stolen antiques... pieces presumed lost from the National Museum was hidden in a concealed underground vault. Alongside the artifacts, officers found significant quantities of illegal drugs, bundles of cash in multiple currencies, and a treasure trove of financial records that hinted at a broader criminal network.

As the Financial Crimes Division began verifying the documents, the Chief Superintendent of Greater Manchester Police’s Stockport Division stepped outside the cordon to address the press. Standing before the flashing cameras and shouting reporters, he delivered a preliminary briefing:

"Yes, the tip-off had come directly from the opposition party."

" Yes, they had found damning evidence."

"And yes, the investigation was now being escalated to national authorities."

The announcement sent a ripple of shock through the political world. Within minutes, phones began to ring across the Kingdom’s political elite. Government officials scrambled to understand why the opposition party would turn on one of their own so decisively... and publicly.

The answer came quickly.
