Event. Local politics - too many masons. No politicians leave office without being much better off - except perhaps those in prison - but even there Archer the liar made money. Todays paper decribes how iraqs oil was divided up amongst oil campanies who were worried that they might not get contracts - under the freedom of information act, minutes of meetings between Baroness Symons and major companies have been made public - this was the year before the invasion in march 03. This gives more proof to the lies made by Blair over the whole invasion. Every time a son comes home in a box, dont you think the families have a right to honesty? The Reuters reporters shot in Afghanistan - didnt their families deserve the truth? I guess your 'shit happens' remark would cover the fact their sons are dead - but dont those troops deserve to know the truth about what they are dying for?
I would watch pm question time on tv, and televised politics live from the house of commons - if there were some way of rigging lie detectors with electric stun collars for dogs - st Vitas dance all over the place - dont know if the national grid could take it though.

'if there is one "incivility" i will defend its the poor treatment of convicted prisoners.'
So your views on the treatment of Bradley Manning, what are they Event? Should he not have civil rights, should he not have the right to a fair trial and to bail whilst he is awaiting it? Should he not have fair and humane treatment? Is it not innocent untill proved guilty?
