World War I Bank Holiday

it was not only Brown who was shocking at PMQs, it was the labour MPs who ought to look into their consciences about the events as the unfolded.

What struck me was that they do not seem to understand anything. Let me refer to Remembrance day and the way the politicians stand at the memorials praising the fallen, of all the conflicts.

As they stand laying their wreaths do they feel no shame. Let me give you a few facts from the Great War. War was declared on the 4th August 1914. They had the bank holiday extended because of the problems with the Stock Exchange and the banking system, seems familiar. Next, do you know what the honourable members did on the 10th August, yes they had a holiday, couldn't miss the Grouse shooting season could they. So, I say that the mock outrage shown by the MPs over Baby P is not new. They are the continuance of an arrogance, of a total lack of really caring, they make me sick, as do all those apologists for their behaviour. They are the last men, they are a disgrace, this is the worst parliament and it is time for change, they serve no useful purpose, it just all so very sad.
