Discuss Jacqui Smith to resign at the Current Affairs, News and Analysis forum within the The Army Rumour Service website; She should be charged with fraud.....along with all the others,...

If Alan Johnson manages to realize his sudden appreciation of the benefits of PR and it is introduced (with LIB DEM support) before this government dies the election may not be as big a disaster as anticipated(?)
Who is anticipating a disaster at the election. Not me. The only disaster would be if the idiot or any other Labour vermin keep their hands on the levers of power.
I could not dig: I dared not rob:
Therefore I lied to please the mob.
Now all my lies are proved untrue
And I must face the men I slew.
What tale shall serve me here among
Mine angry and defrauded young?

Oooh. I don't know....I suspect the Labour Party as a whole may do even worse under PR. Some seats, regardless of what's wearing the red ribbon will vote Labour for ever. Split the vote on PR lines and those areas might actually end up with a none labour MP for the first time since the 1930's....!
Smith still has to defend herself against this (tame) Yank who is taking her to court for slapping his name on a list of banned thieves and desperados. Please lose Home Secretary (I can still call you that for a few more days!) May you be hounded into your next life.
She hasn't got much right and her husband's subsidised jazz shows were heaven sent. Not only the hand of Richard Timney at work, but the hand of God.....in a manner of speaking.
Can you imagine the kind of stuff Mandy keeps in his bottom drawer?
You could leave 'drawer' out of that sentence and be no less revolted.

Do you think that this parliment commands the moral authority to make such a constitutional change?
And IIRC if such a change was proposed then it must go to referendum (but as we all know there are way around that )

Bollarks! PR gives you a frozen, actionless, wimp of a parliament. Look at the results of PR parliaments in other countries - hardly anything gets done, ever, by anyone, and everything that DOES get done is not done for the benefit of the country or electorate, but for the back-room wheelers and dealers who only serve themselves - a bit like now, but at least this way, the whole s0dding lot of them can be thrown out.
What's needed is a ban on political parties - each representatives serves his constituents, the country and nobody else - not the party, not the Whips, not some Union - just the people who put him there as part of his duty to a greater ideal.
It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest. We address ourselves, not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our own necessities but of their advantages.

But for those who rejoice in Miss Mandleson going, let's not forget he is now Lord Mandleson, and will forever cling on in th upper house, feathering his nest and stroking a white Persian cat. Oh sorry, it's just he so reminds me of a Bond villain.
