Subject: RE: BS: David Westwood, should he stay or go?
What stinks is the fact that a politician is holding someone responsible for the actions of others. Try doing that to a politician like say Geoff Hoon for example, they blame civil servants and lowly minions, while claiming to know nothing about it themselves. Politicians themselves no longer behave with honour, and refuse to take responsibility for the actions of people in their department. The poor guy who blew the whistle on the awarding of work permits to bogus applications in Romania, was himself disciplined for telling the truth. Whatever happened to 'The buck stops here'? There is truly no honour amongst thieves. Giok
