A PM that fails to write a letter of condolence correctly, was to “stupid” to see the economic tsunami, sold the nations gold reserves at rock bottom prices and presides over a party and Parliament of petty thieves and whingers…… You couldn’t make or up but with Labour in control the twilight zone is never far away.
MP’s the answer is to be found in two simple choices:
1. Don’t thieve.
2. Do you jobs properly.
3. You won’t have a tarnished reputation.

Easy solution for all MPs : pay it all back, then resign. Stop moaning.
Simples.
