Sunlight in the shade
I received 3 spam emails this afternoon asking for donations. The first two I deleted very quickly, but the third attracted my attention enough to investigate further. The shady organisation calls itself the Sunlight Centre for Open Politics. The Founder is that bounder Paul Staines, who describes himself as "Irish entrepreneur and investor in internet ventures". It may be recalled that he had links with the NF/BNP. And more recently has been prosecuted twice for drink driving and driving without insurance.
The Research Director is Chris Galley, the former civil servant who acted as a traitor and was a spy for the Conservative Party and his handler was Damian Green, who managed to escape prosecution.
I am disappointed to see that Mike Rouse is associating himself with such dodgy characters.
Whilst I am in favour of honesty in politics, the Sunlight Centre for Open Politics is akin to making Nick Griffen the Minister for Immigration.
I suspect that Paul Staines has had one Acid trip too many and addled his brain, or a bull's horns has left him brain damaged, or he is on one gigantic ego trip.
