I sense a possible Lesgate scenario in the offing............... There is NO connection between my obvious dissapointment in the chosen selection, and my being passed over in the Honours List yet again! |

14 Jun 09 - 12:41 AM (#2655921) Subject: RE: Les Barker-Laureate - PM's Response From: John J The PM's response makes it clear to me that these campaigns are a just a government PR / window dressing exercise .....'we're a government that listens to the electorate'. Cobblers. Not only do they not listen they can't read either. John |
