Revealed: the Conservatives' secret millions
All credit to the BBC cameraman on the Andrew Marr Show who gave us a shot from Birmingham showing a sign saying Conservatives and beneath this it said phony Hall. I think it sums it up
As Andrew Marr announced he would be speaking live to David Cameron, I realised I had more important things to do. Such as, taking the dog for a walk, buying toilet rolls (my answer to Tory bullshit) and getting breakfast. I did manage to catch Marr putting Cameron under pressure over his plan for 5,000 private schools. And, Marr did get an admission out of Cameron that George Osborne had played the race card badly over immigration.

Loophole lets donors whose identities are 'hidden' swell the party coffers
Same old Nasty Party. Transparency clouded by opacity.
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.
I thought Cameron handled the interview very well indeed. Marr was far more probing than when he interviewed Brown the week before but that is to Camerons benefit really as it enables him to come over as a consumate performer.
ReplyDeleteI am becoming more and more convinced by Cameron as a PM in waiting.
jailhouselawyer,
ReplyDeleteTalking of nasty parties, news of CSCI's (government monitoring body - elderly care) involvement in, resident's described as a 'terrifying' unprecedented raid by 14 officers on a care home has resulted in outrage. According to relatives the inexplicable immediate closure have left some elderly people homeless.
Relatives and residents praised the high standard of care; one had lived there happily for ten years - proof of good care and attention. Relatives fear the unexplained raid may result in her death.
anonymous,
ReplyDeleteI agree, Cameron speaks from the heart like Obama. Spin free and refreshingly honest.
