Governance

when people ask of the tories if you were in government would you allow the leaking of information I will say this.

If the information is collected for a government department by civil servants at the expense of the taxpayer then, no matter how embarrassing, that information must be published. If it has been collected and then not published then what the point in collecting the information. If it is spressed because it may embarrass the government of the day then it is not released for a political reason. Civil servants are not meant to be political yet they seem to collect information for political purposes, so they are political.

The interesting word which I thought was used by the Home Secretary was when she referred to governance and not government. Could somebody explain the difference, why did she use it? Anybody.
