This is just one set of undesirables from within the political class whinging about another set of undesirables antics from within the same political class. Internecine gang warfare with handbags is just soooooo relevant to peoples everyday lives is it not? Particularly when it involves a middle aged wannabe somebody who failed at University because he was too busy trying to forge an alliance between one set of right wing nutters and another and who still has not yet progressed, in over twenty years, beyond schoolyard politics. A more relevant and breaking story can be found here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/nottinghamshire/7996394.stm where 100 citizens have been arrested in pre-dawn raids by police in an inner city area of Nottingham for the dastardly crime of planning a protest at a power station. Why not just cut to the chase and send a member of the Met's finest round to the home anyone suspected of a thought crime to move them along with a jolly good baton thrashing? I'm expecting Tom Cruise to come flying through my home office window any second. Agreed.
