    The real trouble is that politicians know they can get away with this because nobody really cares. Unless the news was tattooed across the assets of the Page 3 girl, most voters will skip right past this to the FA Cup report.
    Strange isn't it that 'career' politicians are reforming this quaint establishment. Still. as they say, if you've got nothing to hide, what are you afeared of?

    I notice Gordon 'gottapickapocketortwo' Brown did his Macavity act and kept his head down, just a day after promising to restore openness and acountability to government. A worthy successor to Blair.

    Well, well, well, the plot thickens.

    The Conservative MP behind moves to exempt MPs from freedom of information legislation bought a £3,300 quad bike on parliamentary expenses.

    Obviously a coincidence, I'm just surprised he couldn't find a train that ran on gravy.

    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.
