Migration good for votes?

As long as 58% of migrants support Labour, is the party concerned that "almost every UK region has difficulties in housing, health, education and crime because of increased migration"?

Labour is merely growing it's electoral base!

Would Labour be so keen on migration if 58% of migrants supported the Conservative Party!?!

Sir Menzies "no scandal" Campbell !

If only there had been a whiff of scandal, would Sir Menzies Campbell still be leader of the Lberal Democrats!?!

He didn't have an affair with his secretary (so far as I'm aware!) unlike Paddy "Pantsdown" Ashdown nor was he a drunkard (so far as I'm aware!) unlike his immediate predecessor Charles Kennedy!

Position vacant

Will Charles Kennedy sip from the poisoned chalice of the Liberal Democrat leadership again or is he no longer a drinker!?!

Migrant rights and wrongs!

Should the UK hope to be at the top or bottom of a European league table of migrant rights?

The UK came out fifth best for how it allows settled migrants to put down long-term roots - but then fell short on quality of life issues, such as bringing in family members.

Researchers said that migrants living in the UK could face long delays to getting a permanent right to stay. But they added that once that wait was over, migrants did not face language tests or integration courses.

The UK lost marks because of a specific law to strip nationality from immigrants - a measure used only once so far in relation to jailed radical cleric Abu Hamza.

The UK was also criticised for not consulting specialist migrant bodies, unlike some other European nations.

Let's hope we sink down the table next year!

Schadenfreude is....

Apply for your jobs, BBC stars told.
"Corrie Corfield, Charlotte Green and Brian Perkins are among more than 80 radio staff who have signed a letter to the BBC trust opposing the job losses."

Is the media bubble about to burst!?!

From The Politician's Mouth!

Are there any parts of the country where it is easy to access an NHS dentist?

"We have got 4,000 more than we had in 1997, but I entirely accept that in some parts of the country it is still really difficult." - Ben Bradshaw, health minister.

If 58% of dentists believe the quality of care has deteriorated since the introduction of the contract, why have only 15% of patients noticed and gone private!?!

Crystal balls?

"I predict that when I come back on this programme in six months or a year's time, people will be saying 'wouldn't it be great to have that Blair back because we can't stand that Gordon Brown'" - Environment minister David Miliband, 8 February 2007.

Did Miliband mean MPs or people!?!

Ministers rally round for Brown
One opinion poll has given the Tories a seven-point lead over Labour, its biggest lead for 15 years.

Still no need for electoral reform?

2005 General Election Results:
Labour had 35.3% share of the vote, winning 356 seats with a 66 seat majority.
Conservatives had a 32.3% share of the vote and won just 198 seats.

2009(?) General Election results based on Sunday Telegraph poll!
Conservatives have 43% share of the vote, winning 327* seats with low single number majority.
Labour has 36% share of the vote and win 249 (?) seats!

*324 seats needed to win.

Labour Grammar Schools?

Will Labour be promising a grammar school in every town next week!?!

Lurching to economic growth and prosperity?

Hong Kong tax cut to boost growth:
Leader Donald Tsang said taxes would be cut by 1 percentage point, to 16.5% for firms and 15% for individuals "in a move to promote further growth and lure foreign investment".

When Conservatives call for tax cuts to "promote further growth and lure foreign investment", it's condemned as lurching to the right!

How will Alistair Darling's tax increases promote growth and foreign investment!?!

Downing Street Petition for a General Election in 2007

"He [David Cameron] talks about a clamour for an election, I looked at the Downing Street website this morning. Certainly there is a petition calling for an election. It is signed by 26 people and not one of them are the Conservative front bench." - Gordon Brown, 10th October 2007.

The petition can be found here!

Virtuous house prices?

Why should a first time buyer buy a house this month when they could wait one month, pay a lower price and have an extra month's salary too!?!

Conservative bounce?

Was the Conservative bounce in the polls caused by a promise to cut inheritance tax or "substantially lower" immigration?

Has Labour copied the wrong Conservative policy!?!

Alistair Darling on Inheritance Tax

If 96% of estates pay no inheritance tax and Conservative proposals to raise the threshold to £1m were "an example of where the Tories are making promises on tax which they can't afford to pay for", how can Alistair Darling now afford to increase the limit for married couples just one week later!?!

Another Brown vision?

Why does the BBC omit reporting that Gordon Brown was the architect of the "harsh and unfair" tax credits system?

Would the Conservative abolition of tax credits and an increase in everyones personal tax allowance be electorally popular if half of claimaints were put off making future claims?

Anti-Muslim Legislation?

Will Muslims be exempt from Government plans to outlaw inciting gay hate as Islam condemns homosexuality!?!

Disposable Income

Tightest squeeze on wallets in a decade, unless you're an MP!

"The pair [Ed Balls and Yvette Cooper, the husband-and-wife team in Gordon Brown's Cabinet], who have three children, aged eight, six and three, have a joint income of nearly £240,000 a year."

Another three years to be squeezed!

"I want the chance in the next phase of my premiership to develop and show people the policies that are going to make a huge difference " - Gordon Brown, Prime Minister

Tightest squeeze on wallets in a decade

Islam is peace, not health!

Can alcoholics or those infected with STDs ask to be treated by non-muslim GPs!?!

"To learn about alcohol, to learn about sexually transmitted disease, to learn about abortion, it gives us more evidence to campaign against it. There is a difference between learning and practising. It is obligatory for Muslim doctors and students to learn about everything. The prophet said, ‘Learn about witchcraft, but don’t practise it’". - Dr Abdul Majid Katme, of the Islamic Medical Association.

Islam is Peace.

Gordon Bennett Brown!

Does Gordon really think he has a better chance of winning a General Election in two years when people have had a chance to see how successful his policies have been?

Halifax sees house prices slowing

Darling 'to lower 2008 forecasts'

PS When 62% of Labour voters believe Labour has done a bad job on immigration, why will Gordon only focus on "housing, health and education"!?!

Political Inheritances

Why do incoming Conservative governments always inherit a failing UK economy and then have to spend their first term in office fixing it!?!

Non-smoking taxes?

How will the Chancellor recoup the tax revenues lost following the introduction of the smoking ban in England?

Conservative Canutes?

How can the Conservative Party reduce immigration from within the European Union!?!

"unchecked immigration is not inevitable...not the irresistible result of globalisation. We can control it. We will control it" - David Davis, shadow home secretary.

"Canute is legendary for his apparent attempt to "hold back the tide". Canute deliberately placed his throne on the beach and used his evident inability to order the tide to roll back to display to his courtiers the limitations of a king's power to command the seas."

UK deportations

If asylum seekers face torture if deported back to Darfur or Sudan if they come to the UK, wouldn't it be safer if they fled to the neighbouring countries of the Central African Republic, Chad, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Libya or Uganda instead!?!

School Fees

Should failing independent schools be supported by the state?

If parents vote with their wallets and consider the quality of education provided not sufficient to merit the school fees, wouldn't it be better to close the school or replace the existing staff rather than let the school become another failure in the state sector!?!

Number crunching

£3.5bn -The cost of Conservative proposals to reduce Inheritance tax - "an example of where the Tories are making promises on tax which they can't afford to pay for" - Alistair Darling, Chancellor of the Exchequer.

£9.1bn - August's Public Sector Net Borrowing - An example of where Labour are making policies they can't afford to pay for!?!

Islam is Peace?

If stereotyping a racial group is a no no, are Muslims allowed to be stereotyped as being peaceful!?!

Conservative Tax Increases

Why do the Conservatives insist on paying for tax cuts by increasing taxes elsewhere rather than promising to cut welfare benefits and make work pay!?!

If promised cuts in stamp duty for first time buyers means increased taxes elsewhere, the Conservatives are promising to increase taxes for the vast majority of the electorate!

Reoffending

If 65% of offenders who left prison in 2004 reoffended within two years, why not merely increase the initial sentence by another two years!?!

How many of the remaining 35% reoffended but were not caught!?!

Will Ministers be apologising to taxpayers for wasting £2.6bn of our taxes on the National Offenders Management Service?

Expensive expenses?

How many travel expenses can be "over-claimed" before police officers are held accountable for "mistakes"!?!

Train fares fair?

Why should rail staff be expected to tell passengers the "best deals" on rail fares?

Do Tescos staff tell customers what are the best deals on baked beans each day or are customers expected to find out for themselves!?!

NHS rationing

When will rationing of NHS treatments be extended to foreign nationals treated on the NHS?

It is not right that foreign nationals should receive free treatments if they are not entitled to it.

Brown's appeal to Middle England?

Why does Gordon Brown expect 'middle England' to find him appealing when they will be the only group paying for their children to attend University when it's free in Scotland and a lot cheaper in Wales!?!

"And so for 16 year olds from low-income families, who are staying on at school, we'll make a new five year offer. We will finance you through college or university right through to the age of 21." - Gordon Brown.

Smarter about Commuting

A survey has found that 100% of people use the most appropriate form of transport to get to work based upon cost and time taken.

'We cannot ignore this and hope that everyone will take the train.' - Edmund King.

PS If "Men commute on average 20% longer than women", do men sacrifice a shorter commute for higher pay!?!

Good news for the race industry?

Britain remains a place of "inequality, exclusion and isolation".

If the Commission for Racial Equality (CRE) has failed to reduce inequalities in Britain, does this mean there are no solutions and the CRE's successor, the Commission for Equality and Human Rights (CEHR), should be disbanded or that it's funding should be increased!?!

Perhaps the level of immigration should be reduced!

Trust the Chancellor, but keep your money under the mattress?

"People can use their accounts in the usual way, they can carry on making their mortgage payments in the usual way. Northern Rock will be able to carry on its business." - Chancellor Alistair Darling

Who'd have thought that people wouldn't trust politicians as far as they can queue!?!

Green mould?

How important are 'green' issues to the UK electorate?

A report by nine leading environmental groups ["The Green Standard"] - looks at each party's commitments and actions. The Lib Dems were rated highest, getting three "green lights" indicating approval of their policies. Labour got one and the Tories none.

The Liberal Democrats trail in third place on approximately 15%. So why are the BBC still enthralled by Green issues!?!

Teaching apartheid?

How will community cohesion improve by teaching thousands of Muslim children in new state funded schools separated from the kaffir!?!

Cost in Translation (2)

Will Ruth Kelly be pleased to hear that Southall's bilingual railway station nameplate will be removed following complaints from ethnic minorities - they had wanted the sign to appear in other languages too!?!

Fat white bastard

How can Sir Trevor McDonald be cleared of making a racist remark having described Bernard Manning as a "Fat white Bastard"!?!

Brown's benefits?

If Gordon Brown wants to incentivise lone parents and the long term unemployed back into work, unemployment benefits should be reduced after six months!

Will he also reduce incapacity benefit to the level of unemployment benefit to discourage "trading up" benefits!?!

Child poverty

Would child poverty (and crime!) be reduced by discouraging feckless teenagers from becoming pregnant rather than rewarding them with more dollops of taxpayers' cash!?!

Baby cash

Is cash a "key determinant" when it comes to good health and healthy eating in expectant mothers or does it merely signify the difference between mothers who are responsible, work hard and plan for the future and those who live for today and don't care about tomorrow!?!

PS If it's such a good idea to give pregnant mums-to-be £200, why not make it £300 instead!?!

Schooling

If poor children are to succeed at good schools, do they need to study !?! Mere 'attendance' will never provide a good quality education! It should not require exhaustive research to come to this conclusion!

"Children from disadvantaged backgrounds need to do more than just attend a good school to boost their educational achievement" - Joseph Rowntree Foundation

Reporting the news?

Muslim converts target Germany - The Times, 6th September 2007.
White Muslim converts have brought the Islamic holy war into the heart of Europe with a narrowly thwarted plot to blow up hundreds of people in German airports, discotheques and restaurants.

German shock at bomb plot arrests - BBC News online, 5th September 2007.
For months, the German authorities have said that the country faces a heightened threat of terrorist attack, and now it appears those warnings were based on fact.

Hat tip: Pimpmydaughter!

When All Sedley And Done

Does Lord Justice Sedley believe 500,000 false, misspelt or incorrect names on the existing DNA database of just 4m entries should be corrected before the entire UK population are added to it!?!

"It can be said with confidence that the law recognises and will appropriately protect a right of personal privacy." - Lord Justice Sedley.

Two heads are worse than one!

What will prevent good schools from being dragged down when they merge with failing schools!?!

How many poor quality teachers were sacked across England & Wales last year!?!

Unrelated behaviour?

Grooming of white girls for sex is exposed as two Asian men jailed - The Times, August 11th 2007.
Police and groups campaigning to protect women insisted that the grooming of youngsters is not segregated along race lines, though there is concern at the attitudes of some young Asian men towards white girls.

Six years for rapist who invited friends to prey on lost 12-year-old girl - The Times, September 4th 2007.
A 12-year-old girl was raped up to 15 times by four men after she was abducted as she asked for directions to her home, a court was told. The child was lured into a car by Shakil Chowdhury, 39, who drove her to his house. There she was plied with alcohol and attacked by Chowdhury and three others.

British Executive?

When will HM Government rebrand itself HM Executive as it's powers are increasingly usurped by the European Union!?!

School economics

If schools are enjoying a "golden age" where the quality and quantity of candidates applying for vacant posts means schools can select from a talented field, do teachers need more pay rises!?!

The new golden era of teacher recruitment may be good news for schools, who can pick and choose the cream of the crop, but in some cases newly qualified teachers, especially from the north, are having to compete with more than 100 others for the same post.

Red Conservatives?

"No question now, what had happened to the faces of the pigs. The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which." - George Orwell, Animal Farm.

Tories 'to match Labour spending'
So why vote Conservative when you can look forward to Labour levels of spending and taxes for three out of a probable four year Government following the next election!?!

Birth of a new nation?

Evidence that immigration puts a strain on public services!?!

Warning over shortage of midwives - Guardian.
The Royal College of Midwives (RCM) said it had upwardly revised its assessment of the number of new midwives needed by 2012 from 3,000 to 5,000 in the light of higher birth-rate figure.

A quarter of all UK babies have a foreign parent - Daily Mail.
The Office of National statistics figures show 734,000 births in the UK last year, compared to 663,000 four years earlier.

Student housing

How do you reduce over-crowding in student homes by limiting them to just 20% of any street!?!

31 not out!

Would a 43 year old woman be starting her 31st prison sentence if prison life was tougher!?!

Ukippered?

Is it more important for the Electoral Commission to reduce voter choice by destroying UKIP or testing "the law on forfeiture of impermissible donations"?

Health warnings

Are anti-smoking warnings on cigarette packs being dumbed down on the assumption that fewer smokers can read these days!?!

The Institute of Directors said its members were "crying out for improvement" in basic skills.

Does smoking improve your lungs if you are Arabic and happen to read from right to left!?!

Terrorism pays!

Why is Churchill's memory being sullied by having a former terrorist as a new neighbour!?!

"I'm proud to welcome to Downing Street the most inspiring, the greatest and most courageous leader of our generation." - Gordon Brown PM

Who earns what?

Does the left leaning Fabian society think Gordon Brown deserves to earn more money than £475,000 pa BBC news reader Natasha Kiplinsky!?!

Ten Green Bottles!

"If you are involved in the story of the day you can be broadcasting 25 hours a day, eight days a week." - Former Liberal Democrat leader Charles Kennedy.

Good to see that Charlie still has his finger on the pulse!

Burning our money?

If "£21bn on early years and childcare services since 1997" has failed to make any measurable changes to pre-school child development, should spending be doubled or should it be cut to pre-1997 levels!?!

Everton thefts?

How long before the Everton shirt and boots laid by the Everton football team at the makeshift shrine to murdered youngster Rhys Jones are stolen and auctioned on eBay!?!

Peer pressure?

How many unsuccessful non-muslim male conservative candidates have been made peers after their first attempt to become an MP!?!

"If someone ever gave me a job because I felt it made them look good, as some commentators have tried to put to David, I'd never do that." - Sayeeda Warsi

Sub-prime meltdown

Is the sub-prime meltdown a better means of transferring wealth from the rich to the poor than any socialist economist could ever dream of!?!

THE multi-millionaire financier Martin Finegold, dubbed Britain’s “Mr Sub-prime”, has become one of the biggest public losers in the market meltdown.

Hollow threat

With an estimated 1.2m uninsured or unlicenced already on the UK's roads, does David Cameron's threat of disqualifying young offenders from holding or obtaining a driving licence amount to anything substantial!?!

If you want to "hit them where it hurts", they should be required to do hard, physical labour!

Road pricing

Are higher car parking charges a cheap yet effective method of reducing road congestion in city centres?

Johnny Ray Conner

Why is the BBC carrying a photo of Johnny Ray Conner who is due to be executed on Wednesday for the "cruel and inhumane" murder of Kathyanna Gon Thi Nguyen rather than the victim's photo?

Hopefully the Texas Governor tells the European Union where to go, just like Michael O'Leary!

Emergency First Aid?

Is there an A&E unit in the country not threatened with closure that could provide emergency first aid to the Conservative Party?

It's confused, unbalances and doesn't know who it is anymore!

More tax cuts?

"A Plaid MP has threatened to withhold part of his BBC licence fee saying there is not enough BBC coverage of Wales on news programmes across the UK."

Did Plaid Cymru MP Adam Price pay for his London TV licence or did he claim it on expenses!?!

Should I withhold some of my taxes as I don't receive free prescriptions as the Welsh do!?!

Slaving over the truth?

How many historians believe that the slave trade was the basis of the industrial revolution as the Reverend Jesse Jackson claims?

"People of colour in Britain should stand proud as creditors, not as debtors - after all, the slave trade was the basis of the economic foundation, the basis of the industrial revolution." - Reverend Jesse Jackson.

Why didn't Africa industrialise as soon as the slave trade ended!?!

Living it up in Scotland?

Did Louvain Luvunzu and his family jump the council house waiting list to secure his home in Motherwell?

"In all these, I have a great hope for a better life here in Scotland primarily because I have a house to live in; I have a school for my children; I have proper health care and access to good transport services." - Louvain Luvunzu.

Will Home Office Minister Joan Ryan pose for a photo with other families left waiting!?!

Bet your life?

In the "unlikely event" that Philip Lawrence's murderer Learco Chindamo, - a reformed, very nice, very thoughtful person - murders again, what are the chances the victim's a member of the Asylum & Immigration Tribunal rather than an innocent member of the public?

Burying our money!

If it takes one summer to test the safety of 20,000 gravestones, how long will it take to test another 20,000?

Five years!

Criminal conclusion?

How many Police Officers are too scared to leave their stations these days!?!

A disturbing 42 per cent of people are too scared of yobs to leave home at night, a Mirror poll reveals today.

Has the great liberal experiment, soft on crime, soft on the causes of crime and soft on the punishment of crime reached it's conclusion?

Double taxation?

If parents are too irresponsible to study or to work and rely on the welfare state to fund their lifestyles, why should society be shocked when their children are also irresponsible?

Why expect anything else!?! The parents have no responsibilities to teach in the first place!

The taxpayer funds these social ills and is then expected to fund the solutions too!

It's double taxation!

English Conservative Tax Cuts?

Would proposals to reduce inheritance tax be more popular if they only applied in England as nursing care for the elderly is free in Scotland and they don't have to pay any additional taxes to cover the costs!?!

We'll avoid mentioning university tuition fees....

The right stuff!

Will the Conservative Party be able to withstand Labour claims of "lurching to the right" as it publishes it's first sensible policy proposal in a decade!?!

A Conservative government should abolish inheritance tax because it penalises too many middle-income families.

Would the UK economy become more competitive if the welfare state was reformed!?!

Sprint finished?

Will it be good when every single A-level student only earn A-grades!?!

Should every athlete competing in the 2012 Olympics 100m sprint win gold medals or would the world want to know who's the very best!?!

Counting unhatched chickens?

Pension schemes finances improve - BBC News online, 9 July 2007.
The PPF (Pension Protection Fund) is launching a monthly solvency index and the 7,783 schemes it measures now have a collective surplus of £99bn. A year ago, the PPF said, the funds it scrutinised had a deficit of £8bn. The finances of the schemes have improved because of rising share prices, and higher bond yields which have reduced the value of liabilities.

Heavy losses sweep world markets - BBC News online, 16th August 2007.
More than £100bn has now been wiped off the value of the UK's leading shares alone since last Wednesday.

Hedge fund managers may be ex-rocket scientists with brains the size of planets but it's an explosive combination when mixed with no common sense!

Kamikazi bankers?

How many bankers will be sacked for betting that lending money to "NINJAs" (No income, no job or assets) was a good idea!?!

"If you owe the bank a million, you worry. If you owe it a billion, the bank worries. If the bank owes billions, central bankers worry."

Less Council Taxpayer Friendly?

Will council tax need to increase to cover any shortfall in revenues when English and Welsh councils are banned from using wheel clamping to raise funds!?!

A Department for Transport spokeswoman said the guidance aims to be "more motorist friendly" for those who do not persistently evade parking charges.

Conservative, me!?!

Tories aim to end forced marriage

Tory plan for red tape 'tax cut' (for business!)

Tories consider social tax breaks

When will the Conservatives ever announce a policy that helps me!?!

What goes up...

Gordon Brown's poll ratings soar

must come down...

Airheads (2)

How much rubbish will be left behind when environmental protestors leave their camp site close to Heathrow airport in a week's time?

How many trees will be saved as 1,800 policemen have no paperwork to fill in this week!?!

Number crunching

3 years: Wasted at secondary school by too many pupils "failing to make progress".

2 years: Proposed increase in school leaving age for pupils.

NHS hospital failings exposed?

How many private hospitals have poor food hygiene standards?

The BBC never misses an opportunity to highlight private sector failings!

Air heads?

Can we assume none of the climate change protestors "from abroad" campaigning against further expansion of Heathrow Airport flew into the UK!?!

NHS priorities?

The NHS refuse to fund the £3,500 per month kidney cancer treatment of the late Tony Wilson.

NHS treat the moron seriously injured "tombstoning" in Dorset for free despite needing to be airlifted to hospital having ignored warnings on it's dangers!

English conversation?

Will the English be allowed to debate whether they want to keep Scotland in the Union!?!

Good news for black boys?

American rapper 50 Cent has threatened to stop releasing solo material if his next album fails to outsell a new CD by rival star Kanye West. - BBC news online, 11th August 2007.

Black boys need positive role models from within their own communities to tackle underachievement. Many young black boys see rappers like 50 Cent as a role model. - BBC news online, 9th August 2007.

Zulfqar Hussain and Qaiser Naveed

When will the BBC report that two Muslim men, Zulfqar Hussain and Qaiser Naveed, have each been jailed for five years and eight months after exploiting two girls aged under 16 by plying them with alcohol and drugs before having sex with them?

"This is a truly shocking offence. You knew them. They were exploited for sex by the two of you. No other description is possible. They were under-age girls who you knew it was your responsibility to protect and not exploit." - Judge Andrew Gilbart, QC.

Parents have complained that in parts of the country with large Asian communities white girls as young as 12 are being targeted for sex by older Asian men yet the authorities are unwilling to act because of fears of being labelled racist.

Benefits of the European Union?

"Under current rules, doctors from Europe can register and treat patients in Britain but are not tested for clinical competence and do not have to prove they can speak English." - Why not?

They should be expected to have the same level of competence as domestic doctors and should be able to converse with their patients in English. How many British patients are risking their lives!?!

Deserving or Responsible?

If you walk down a dark street at night covered in gold jewellery and happen to be mugged, how many people would say that you were in no way to blame for your plight?

You do not deserve to be mugged but your irresponsible actions have contributed to it...

Black role models

Given that a lack of black role models will cost the UK economy "£24bn over the next 50 years through taxes and criminal justice costs", just how many are needed so that black boys can make "an even greater contribution economically, culturally and politically to Britain"!?!


Three role models to ignore?

Import restrictions?

Would 91 Iraqi interpreters have a better chance of a new life in Britain if they were terror suspects?

Why does Jamil el-Banna face torture if he returns to Jordan?

If Abdulnour Sameur found it hard to live as a good Muslim in Britain, I bet he's gutted that the British Government wants him to return here!

As found guilty on TV?

Police report Channel 4 to Ofcom for completely distorting what was said by three Islamic preachers in "Undercover Mosque" and no charges will be brought against the trio.

Police do not report the BBC to Ofcom for what was said by Nick Griffin in "The Secret Agent" but use the programme as evidence to arrest Nick Griffin and an accomplice...

Fingerprinted?

When will fingerprinting be introduced for benefit claimants in the UK?

Where are the locusts?

Love him or loathe him, you have to admit that Gordon Brown has had a tough honeymoon since becoming Prime Minister.

"Let the work of change begin" but who'd have guessed he was referring to floods and pestilence.

When will the locusts arrive!?!

White MPs spurn mayoral bid

Can you ever imagine the BBC publishing such a headline!?!

Flying pigs?

Will the Liberal Democrat's proposal of an additional £10 tax on domestic flights to subsidise the railways also apply to politicians flying around the UK in helicopters at election time!?!

Schools out for summer!

Who is the strategic thinker within Conservative Central Office who thought David Cameron should focus on school discipline at the start of the summer holidays!?!
