Actually you remind me of Hazel Blears.
I was listening to Radio 4 on Saturday afternoon and she was waxing lyrical about how her government listened and wanted to give the people what they wanted etc etc. Anyways a question came up about an enquiry into a hospital fuxing up real bad in Stanford (iirc) and she point blank disagreed with a formal public inquiry. When asked how this matched up with being a government that listened she said that it was a government that had to "do the right thing"
Oh I laughed and I laughed and I laughed.
A government that's patronising enough to say that it listens but then tells the public it is wrong whenever there is a difference of opinion.
Goodbye Labour.
The election can't come soon enough.0 -

That's funny you remind me of !!!!!! :eek:'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is. A single market without barriers visible or invisible giving you direct and unhindered access to the purchasing power of over 300 million of the worlds wealthiest and most prosperous people' Margaret Thatcher0 -
