Her bizarre comment about "We desperately need to restore both authority and respect to Parliament" did make me chuckle though. I cannot imagine what twisted logic can equate the youthful indiscretions of an MP's spouse to the recent MPs' expenses revelations.<br /><br />Watch her here to see SNP's Nicola Sturgeon running rings round her and be reminded that Nadine doesn't think that Trident is a weapon of mass destruction... priceless.<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icxJggfW0T0<br /><br />If this is the calibre of a typical Tory MP then Gawd help us!Richardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881762807913180318.post-61058306710829331952009-12-04T10:19:39.260+00:002009-12-04T10:19:39.260+00:00"We desperately need to restore both authorit..."We desperately need to restore both authority and respect to Parliament."<br /><br />An excellent to excuse to kick Nadine Dorries out at the next election.

Would it not be fair enough for any person in public life to exercise some sort of control over what is essentially exploitation of their position by a spouse/partner when it comes to advertising through the infotainment industry?Cardinal Richelieu's molehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07355424371874064362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881762807913180318.post-55846142159292960192009-12-04T01:32:20.419+00:002009-12-04T01:32:20.419+00:00"I've looked through the write-up of the ..."I've looked through the write-up of the interview, and I didn't see anything that suggested the interview was held in the apartment.
