THE LAST DITCH

Prodicus: 'In place of strife – Unite!' Mrs Dromey announces her candidacy.

Prodicus is on form. Do read the whole thing, but here's the nub of his thesis:

So, to recap, the deputy leader of
the Labour Party is sleeping with the Hon. Treasurer of the Party who
is a big cheese in Unite the Union which pays the Labour Party's bills
by arrangement with, er, the Hon. Treasurer of the Labour Party which,
by the will of its Leader, abusing his office as our (temporary) Prime
Minister, gives lots of taxpayers' money (through its 'union
modernisation fund') to, er, Unite the Union without whose support the
Labour Party would be bankrupt and, er, out of business.

Now you are an expert.

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.
