Perhaps I should have said “in front of his fridge”.

But “below the cliff” is on the foreshore, isn’t it, not somewhere stuffed into the rock?

Having known a couple of second hand car dealers that were out and out crooks, this is not before time.. although I still think it would make for amusing dinner party conversation..
“And what do you do?”
“Well, I used to sell 4x4s, but now…”

I am also perplexed about the male prostitute alluded to above who entertained men on the floor below the fridge.. Truly, the mind boggles..

Also good to see all this brotherly love in the Lib Dems – perhaps they chose it so that they wouldn’t be burdened with the responsibility of ever being in charge of anything.

Those pictures on that council computer, however. The policeman said they were so disgusting he could hardly look at them – and he had to spend several days at public expense trawling through every single one.

Usually, Council staff would have covered up for someone so senior. It just so happened in this case, though, that the councillor in question had been a prime mover in the sacking of the Chief Executive. A final act of revenge!

Perhaps Kieron and his chums should look at the average book published in this country and see what it contains. There are Nobel Prize winners who have been far more explicit.

But plenty of embarrassment for your party, Kieron, when Councillor Bernadette Devine was convicted for her part in a £10 million VAT fraud. Typical Tory activitiy, eh, Kieron?

(Oh, the fact that Kieron doesn’t give his real name proves he is a coward. Plenty of those in the Tory Party.)

Hmm… Isn’t she being paid £ 1.50 a minute NOT to keep her trap firmly shut ? It’s a nice idea, but I can’t exactly see it happening.

Good to know that her website emphasises the point that her type of entertainment is not intended to ‘humiliate’ anyone. Apart from one’s political colleagues it would appear.

I think she should be encouraged to become an MP – it would make a change from Lynne Featherstone on the Westminster Hour.

I should add: “(he was out)”.

There was no need to worry, Angus, we were probably all assuming that their verdict was that they were happy for him to download porn on his Council laptop!!!

Sorry, it should read: “assist her personal, ie, non-council activities”.

“his constituents gave their verdict.”

I should add: “(he was out)”.

The councillor in question was suspended from the Labour Group and had to resign all his posts. At the ensuing election, his constituents gave their verdict.

I rake this up because this particular councillor had a habit of shouting his mouth off about standards of decorum and anti-social behaviour – his favourite word for miscreants was “scum”.

Now, if Mrs Bushell was prone to lecturing us on our morals (like Duncan Sandys, say), we could dismiss her as a hypocrite. But I see no evidence that this is so.

And unlike the Ealing councillor, there is no reason to believe that Mrs Bushell is using Council facilities to assist her business activities.

The two points at issue, I think, are (1) her non-membership of the party, and (2) her failure to make full, relevant disclosure.

She isn’t selling missiles, cigarettes, fatty food aimed at children, or SUVs. In each of those cases, someone may well get hurt, but presumably the media wouldn’t care if she was involved in those.

This is all prudishness. And people need to grow up.
