Democracy

This only confirms in my mind what I have already said. That this has to be the worst parliament in living memory, if not longer.

Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely, and the rich and powerful I consider now to be beyond redemption. They all have to go, Gordon Brown will soon have to call an election because the situation in parliament is getting beyond parody.

I have called in earlier posts for a government of national unity with George Osbourne as leader, does nobody understand irony any more.

Consider the pictures of Mr Mosly which caused so much problem, well can we revisit questions to the leader of the conservatives and get him to respond to questions of drug taking by senior members, even though it may well have happened before they were in high office. I demand a satisfactory response from somebody who might well lead our country if the electorate so choose.

This report opens up again a whole new can of worms. I want anaswers to cash for honours, about loans to political parties.

Could it be that the conservatives have a problem with regard to not pressing the government on this issue because they have their own skeletons in the cupboard.

For a democrat I am saddened by all this. It is up to a free press to expose these issues, and for people to reveal the truths which they are hiding. It is still like the problem with Iraq. The lack of truth in the decision to go to war has undermined our society, if kies are told to take us into a war where hundreds of thousands have been killed, then surely people will lie about lesser events.

Tony Blair, Gordon Brown and the politicians have sown the seeds for their destruction, through the democratic process. An election, and soon. This must end.
