For fuck's sake. Unbelievable? No, totally believable...Dispatch the lot of them. (more: click on image). Not to seem partisan [moi?]: In the 'cash for questions' scandal of the mid-Nineties, Mohamed Fayed was famously told that you "rent an MP like you rent a London taxi".[Link] Then came Blair, whiter than white...the most corrupt UK politician ever? Probably not. And, lest ye forget: [chickyog]The first 'Lobbygate' scandal back in 1998 featured none other than 'Smeargate' star Derek Draper. That one of the last scandals of the New Labour years features three of its stalwarts – Byers, Hoon and Hewitt – is utterly fitting.
Update, Tuesday: [Link] What about Milburn? What about the others?
For starters.What about Brown's globe-trotting, sun-loving, yacht-tripping, directorship-acquiring, wealth-accumulating, fund-shifting, fee-taking, lecture-delivering, teeth-brandishing, dossier-fixing, war-starting predecessor? Let's suspend Blair!

ResponderEliminarWho? John Butterkiss popcorn? look, nobody else seems to have mentioned him so why should I? ;-)
ResponderEliminarI think Sir John was a piece of bad news that was usefully buried!
