  1. I am just sickened by the whole thing Gwil. It is quite true that the rich get rich and the poor get poorer - what can most of our Front Bench know about the cost of living as most of them are millionaires.

    1. When I come to the UK some of the first things I notice is the large number of "pound shops", and the shabbiness of a lot of the town centers, with many shops boarded up, and amount of litter . . . and in fact a friend of mine returning from a visit to London remarked, without any prompting from me, on the gulf between the rich and the poor. I have the impression that Britain is following the US and the middle class is under threat.

    3. Honesty means no bullshit. To be an honest politician is not easy (maybe it's impossible - although Jimmy Carter, Nelson Mandela and Gandhi managed it. It's because you have to serve 3 masters: lobbyists, yourself, your party, the electorate. The electorate being last in the list.

    1. Hello Bob. I'm a sucker for these Keep Calm slogans, even if some of them are corny.
