    OMG !!! Michael Gove is on GW tonight. Is there a more loathsome slimeball in British politics?

    Yes.  Quite a few.

    Manoeuvring himself into position now 'those in the know' think that Boris has shot his bolt .... revolting, both of them ... but probably wealthy enough to have very nice gardens  :/

    There's a wonderful Scottish expression: " He's got the kinda face you'd never tire of kickin' " Not that I'd condone violence of any form.

    Haven't seen that for a while @Hostafan1 ... horribly satisfying  ;)

    At least journalists who go into politics can't say that they didn't know what to expect ...

    I've said it before and I'll say it again. "there's not one single politician in this country, of any party, who deserves my trust , my respect, or my vote"

    That applies to so many public figures Hosta but we have to exercise restraint.

    As for naming and shaming, too many, but any public paid MP/councillor/civil servant involved in expenses fraud/sexual harrassment/bullying/working the system instead of making the systems work for all plus those who forget the "servant" part of their role and put personal ambition before constituency/region/country.   

    Doesn't leave many does it?

    Some are honest Hosta.  Law of averages.
