Go!

.
We’ve been away for a few days, but not much has changed has it?

There are still tales of what ‘Bronco’ Brown did or did not say or write to Col Gaddafi. There are still reports about what Jack Straw and ‘Mandy’ Mandelson did or did not say about either the Pan-Am bomber affair or the state of the economy.

Though one hardly dares to say ‘Bring back Teflon Tone and his gang of PR consultants’ one has to say that this present crew is a pretty dismal lot with indecision, wrong decision, muddled thinking and general negativity by comparison.

There is only one answer. Call a General Election!

Strewth!

.
The Communication Workers Union is in dispute with Royal Mail over plans to modernise the service and have been staging a series of 24-hour walkouts around the country.

Though the strikes seem to be having little effect according to Royal Mail, the union are now planning to ballot its members on holding a national strike and have called on the government to intervene.

Lord Mandelson, the unelected Business Secretary, has rejected these calls and has told the union to ‘wake up’ so as to avoid Royal Mail's further decline.

Strewth! This is a Labour minister telling a union to wake up!

Whatever next?
