Enclosing a cheque made out to the Labour Party will no doubt grease
the application.....


That is a certain way of not getting a silly gong, which all should be
banned anyway. The US doesn't have such daftness. They are sensitive to
these matters after the likes of Bernie Ecclestone.



The trouble with you IMM is you shold have gone to a snotty Uni where
ypou would have been taught the fundamental truths, one of whaich is teh
greatest crime is getting caught.

The only difference in the USA is that because the judges and half of te
police's bosses also get elected, as long as the cheques are big enough
and far reaching enough, even if caught, you won't get prosecuted...

Why on earth do you think there is all this support from reform of the
law courts, and elected upper ghouse?

So the government can do what it likes and be sure of no opposition.

Its the normal route down which a democracy goes on its way to a fascist
dictatorship.

On an aside, I was just listening to John Prescott on the beeb.

On being asked whether in Tonys absence he had complete control, he
utterd something like:

'of course if the prime minister needs discussing, we will do that'

Now my question is this

was he

(a) inadvertently lettng slip that he is working on a putsch to get rid
of tony?

or
(b) simply using words bigger than he knows how to, to try to appear
smarter than he really is?


Remarkably similar to Napoleon in Animal Farm.......
