I am unashamedly stealing this from an online friend who posted it to Facebook the other day

Don’t get me wrong; we’ve had some pretty dodgy governments in the past. Lloyd George was no saint, using honours to get things he wanted from the rich and powerful; Harold Wilson had similar tendencies. Lord knows, John Major’s rabble were often caught with their snouts in the trough of public funds, and Blair’s lies over Iraq will always overshadow the good things done with the NHS, minimum wage and SureStart.
The current government is different. I can’t think of another administration where corruption is so commonplace that it has become the standard way of transacting government business. The really staggering part of this is that the Tory party don’t see anything wrong in corruption. Acting solely in the interests of themselves, their friends, family and political donors is simply the way they view the world.
