CP I quite agree but

I believe that this stament under oath will force a retraction not an apology, this was too personal to hide behind parliamentary privilege my statement above is what I personally believe should happen ... However I don’t rate many of them as people or politicians so I won’t hold my breath.

'They Don't Get It',They never will and they don't care,two fingers up to ordinary voters,but when They think they have been slighted they demand apologies left right and centre...

'They = Politicians/Bankers/Editors ( and owners)/Lawyers/Union Leaders...Money Mad,Power Hungry Twats the lot of em...

Quote of the (last) week:

In reply to Balls' demands for an apology over his integity being 'inpugned' . . .

Oh, how I chuckled

Long gone are the days when they did the honourable thing and went off to the study with a loaded gun and a bottle of single malt and locked the door behind them.

Labour are demanding that the Chancellor apologise for pointing out that Balls' (and other Brown crony's) fingerprints are all over the banking crisis.

After 13 years of misrule and 2 years of doing their best to sabotage any possible recovery with not a word of apology why should anyone apologise to any of these people. The only apologise should be to us and it should be their last public act before retiring and preferably emigrating.

I long ago lost the capacity to be surprised by the arrogance, stupidity, greed and venality of the Political Class.

Frankly, if I saw David Icke prove on live TV that Tony Blair really is a 7 foot tall, shape-changing, alien Lizardman who eats children, my reaction would be, "Meh. It figures."

They're not delusional and detached - far from it. They're just trying to distance themselves in the voter's minds from the shambles they presided over. I have no doubt that in private they're fully aware of the fcuk-ups that they made.

It's politics as usual - pretend that the problems were nothing to do with your incompetence. Unfortunately, a very substantial part of the British electorate are not economically literate enough to see through the BS.

Political cynicism on overdrive...

Given Team Dave's even more obvious subservience to City interests and the likelihood of huge financial pile up under Osborne I'd have thought a short note of thanks for the political ammunition would have been in order.

Unfortunately No politician is big enough to apologise I would hope that the speaker will make him. Even if he does it will not sound like an apology though. There will be enough to answer for as the truth outs.

Bob on. The Chancellor has made himself look stupid. Again
