Martin Bell tells it like it is. Beau Bo d'Or saves us from our rage by making us laugh about it (click to enlarge). It's not just Labour though. When their failure to prevent the Freedom of Information Act applying to their expenses leads to publication, public disgust will reach dangerous levels. I suspect we are seeing so many apparently stupid and reckless cases now, because they know they are done for and feel they may as well be hanged for sheep as lambs.

    This just goes to show how slow the media really is. ‘Public trust in politicians now lower than during days of Tory sleaze’ As far as I am concerned it has been for five years or so.

Tom is a retired international lawyer. He was a partner in a City of London law firm and spent almost twenty years abroad serving clients from all over the world.

Returning to London on retirement in 2011, he was dismayed to discover how much liberty had been lost in the UK while he was away.

He’s a classical liberal (libertarian, if you must) who, like his illustrious namesake, considers that

“…government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one.”
