Re: [Update] The Liberal-Conservative Coalition
To me Prescott is the quintessential Champagne Socialist.
In other news David Laws has been caught with his fingers well and truly in the till. Nice actions to try and make up but a tad too late I feel.

Re: [Update] The Liberal-Conservative Coalition
I wonder how many more of these the ToryGraph has squirreled away, just waiting to de-rail a coalition they don't agree with?

Presumably he hasn't refused the peerage..
A little hypocritical considering he said he would.

Well if he does accept it'd be typical of him and many of his New Labour colleagues - past and present.

A little self-serving perhaps, but immoral? I don't think so.

How many more excuses to we need for MPs fiddling their expenses. This forum was the last place I would have expected to read support for a MP caught flipping and renting.

Re: [Update] The Liberal-Conservative Coalition
I've copied/moved some posts to the actual David Laws thread, so that the Coalition thread isn't taken up by posts all about David Laws.
