It seems so. It is a matter of control. "You will say this and no more." I can see the logic.

The name I dread is Jacqui Lait.  I've met her several times and she is an utterly self serving git.

I knew her brother.

Complete box of frogs case.  noooo:

I knew her sister, cafeau.....  redface:

 tunble:


Not the Eee Jacqui Lait jokes then

Not in The Commons....  noooo:
Indeed, we should both be ashamed then.    redface:  and  point:

Just checked and found the stupid cow gave up her safe seat in 2010 after having had to pay back 7 grand so she's safely out of politics now.  Result!

Lait used to swan into where I worked so we could brief her on the employment aspects of whatever key MoD bid we were pursuing at the time.  She couldn't give a flying fuck about the constituency.  When she got replaced by Michael Foster of Labour we thought life would get worse but he was a great MP who understood local employment issues and how we could help and was never shy of badgering us to help local schools etc.  Whenever people say all MPs are shite I always think they've never met Foster.  He lost his seat to a new tory woman last time round but I'd left that job by then so no real idea how good she is.
Well, whatever, nevermind

Didn't know that

What got me was both her and Cameron not realising who has to take responsibility for her political aide threatening the papers.  She does and so should have been kicked half way down Whitehall for that alone
Well, whatever, nevermind

It looks like Michael Fabricant has been sacked for saying what most of us were thinking about how long it took her to quit.  noooo:

The conversation with the aide and the papers was truly excruciating. The whole you dont know who you're messing with threat qas ridiculous. But there was no way in hell she made that call on her own initiative. That would have been very carefully scripted byher boss !

"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." 

Well, someone had to say it!
