No title, but a quick sashay - 27 October 2015... time to dance whilst the Lords burns and, now I come to mention it...

So, Lord Trefgarne, whose side ARE you on?


The Government loses a(nother) vote in the Lords, and all of a sudden, Lords Reform is on the cards. Now, given that they've tried to exclude anything up to two million voters from the electoral register, rigging the constituency boundary review in the process, intend to shut off the Official Opposition's primary source of income, they're hardly holding themselves up as defenders of the democratic process. And now, they've come for the Lords.


Get up and dance, you know that you want to...


It is quite amazing what the internet can expose you to, especially if, like me, you are of an inquisitive nature. So, try this. I defy you not to want to move...




On this day in... 2007

Did I have a small hand in the changing of the guard amongst Central Suffolk Tories? Well, I answered a question that was apparently being asked, and then, all of a sudden, Sir Michael Lord was gone. Sadly, for Tim Passmore, the usual rule whereby the local Tories are considered too useless to fill vacancies created by retirement applied, and that nice Dr Poulter won the selection. No wonder some of the locals don't like him...
