You really cannot make this stuff up anymore, the Audit Commission have paid a labour lobby group £60,000 of our money, to help it fight the Conservatives after Eric Pickles (conservative chairman) called for some of its powers to be removed................... how many more times are we going to hear of this sort of thing, before the election?

According to the story it isn't a lobby group and hasn't done any lobbying, just written a couple of reports. The Tories don't even claim that it has done any lobbying.

Personally I was thinking of a 'phone in.

Want to see Winky shot next, dial 0890 ........ To see Blears shot, call 0890.

Who dies? YOU decide...

We could use the money raised to pay for the bullets and carbon offsetting of the helicopters, so it would be an environmentally friendly event too... That ought to keep everyone happy......

Now would be the perfect time to realise my dream of seeing 'The Running Man' game show brought to life.


Maybe even get Arnie to host the show....(though the big wigs will probably want Brucy).
