      I wouldn’t trust Steve Baker.

      When asked about how much debt the government has, particularly for pensions, his attitude is interesting.

      Not a peep about the debt. However, he will expend lots of time investigating electoral rolls. ie. He won’t answer the public on state fraud, and I bet he won’t even answer a constituent either.

      So if you’re a constituent, ask him how much the state owes for the state pension.

        This appars to be illiterate. Baker is one of the two or three most fanatically anti-debt, anti-deficit, anti-taxation MPs in Parliament.

        Have you been sniffing glue – Steve Baker is one of the few who actually understands the issue, and is fanatically anti-debt. Ever read any of his writing on the subject.

        The other guy who understands the issues is Brooks Newmark.

        Both are bright!

    One could say that Peter Lilley was evergreen…

    you gotta larf

    there’s Dave on the news telling about his latest plans for law ‘n order when only last week he was having a bit of bother with his chief whip and the police – what an absolute wanker

    oh by the way

    how many of the above are millionaires and how many of them have had a proper job before and how many of them are in trouble over their expenses – we know they are all twats, taken for granted

      Adam Holloway for Defence has had a proper job (Army) and is a good MP for his constituency. Took a stand against a whip on the EU so probably stands no chance. Shame…

      Steve Baker was a Squadron Leader, a software engineer and a director of various start-ups. He’s earned all his own money, isn’t a millionaire and wasn’t in Parliament when the expenses scanal hit. You’re more of a twat than he is.

    More aspirers to the CM&S Committee than any of the other committees;must be the lure of free tickets that attracts them.

    I wish David Morris would give Peter Lilley a clear run on the Climate Change committee.

    Environment Food and Rural Affairs – Simon Hart, the Countryside Alliance placeman for foxhunting and badger culling. ‘Tally-ho’.

Tom Harris bemoans the public’s attitude to politicians…

“Mr Oborne echoes the lazy, anti-politics whine we hear so often these days, all based on the absurd notion that politicians were once loved and only fell out of public favour during the expenses scandal. He should take a walk to the Strangers’ Bar. But not to sup with the patrons he seems to despise so much, dearie me, no; he should instead look at the paintings on the corridor outside the bar, which depict the devastating fire which consumed most of the Palace in 1834. And he should reflect on the fact that on that dramatic night, as the Commons went up in flames, a crowd gathered on the South Bank to clap and cheer.”



Focus group time. says:

The thing that Dave needs to work out is which group is more likely to vote Conservative. Mad swivel-eyed loons or mad homosexuals wishing to get married.
