Lets hope that good old Aleck is triumphant , just think of the jobs it would create if he gets his way, rebuilding that wall across the full length of the boarder

Interesting little blog about Baroness Warsi and the inadequacies of the House of Lords.

Apart from the current controversy over Warsi, the real scandal is that she is a member of the government taking important decisions which affect all our lives, yet the electorate comprehensively rejected her. This, in a so-called modern democracy.

Re: The Tories
We might have to get used to it Steve......there is much that is done by those who we didn't elect. I'm thinking Brussels here, and unless someone grows some cojones and asks the electorate that little question, we are ambling towards more of the same.

The first time I saw her interviewed was on Question Time, prior to her failing to win a seat as a Member of Parliament.
I was quite impressed, her banging on about equality.
Blimey, I thought, hug-a-hoodie Conservative-Lites really have changed from what they once were.
Then she was asked about civil partnerships, which she vehemently opposed.
So much for equality.
In her twisted world some seem more equal than others.
Now everyone can see her for what she is.
Two faced, and dishonest.
She should go far...in the political world.

Re: The Tories
I think this belongs in here ... it has to do with Tories. Seems like someone is mailing body parts to Conservative Party HQ in Ottawa Yes, Ottawa! All of a sudden Canada ain't boring no more
Human foot sent to Canada's Conservative party headquarters | World news | guardian.co.uk
And it made the British press ... way to go Canada.

Yeah ... but I bet when it makes the "Mail" the story will be a lot more fun
Evidently the killer made a video of the murder; and now the coppers have the video Far out, eh.

And a typical politician too .... I guess the other foot arrived at Liberal Party HQ Must be hedging his bets. Canada hasn't been this much fun since a guy hacked off someone's head on a cross-country Greyhound.
Ah well, I guess I'm wandering way off topic ... but, a little lite summer relief is ok.
