Exactly. The rebels did a great job of exposing their leadership there. Bill Cash did himself a world of good in my mind with that. I think we have to accept that there are a few covert troops in the vipers nest. They have to fly under the radar sometimes, but clear actions like this are what I am going to judge people on.

I'm quite sure that the Broon,Clegg deal concerned the Euro being introduced into the UK quite soon after a GE.

The LIB-DEMs would do anything to have the Euro installed on us,anything.

That,as they say,would be,game,set and match to EU by a three sets to love margin.

An horrific tradgedy that hardly bears thinking about,without bringing forth massive waves of anger in you.
