Re: The Tories
You not been invited to any Conservative 'brainstorming' sessions, John?
Might be a good place to bring up reckless spending.

Re: The Tories
Politicians never come out of politics poor....and this applies to those travelling under all banners.
Even when socialism was real socialism.......the politicians took what they could for themselves, with no regard to their principles.
Wasn't it said of Arthur Scargill......he went into politics with a big union and a small house.......came out of politics with a small union and a big house.
The quote may not beverbatim, but the gist of it is.

I'll keep my judgements until you lot have been in power a few months, I know leopards don't change their spots, even if the new cubs make the right noises

no money, then why add too overseas aid, but then don't expect yeh to comment on that. or Lord Hanningfield fer that matter, seems to be plenty of money around fer things that don't affect us.
