World Watching

Conservative Leader David Cameron has called for ‘ordinary voters’ to stand as tory candidates at the next election.

The call comes at a time when many expect a massive change in the faces swanning around the Houses of Parliament after the next election.

A publicity stunt on the part of Mr cameron? absolutely! but it stands to reason that the replacements for the ones who have forced to quit will be voters.

Before Mr Cameron gets too carried away selecting new candidates though, there are still individuals walking the corridors of Westminster who have mis-used public funds and one would hope he will spend as much time keeping the pressure on for them to quit and repay the money they have ’stolen’ from the public purse, regardless of which political banner they may unite under.

Tory MP Anthony Steen is on his ’final warning’ according to David Cameron. This came about as a response to Steens interview which he gave to the BBC and broadcast on Radio 4’s The World at One show.

In the interview he blamed the freedom of information act for his downfall, accused ‘people’ of being jealous of his large house, which according to the MP looks like Balmoral, and questioned peoples ‘right’ to interfere with his private life.

Well i have to say Mr Steen, you are seriously out of touch with reality here. When your frittering away the taxpayers money they have EVERY right to know where it is going and why. Consider your self lucky to still be in a job, any ordinary citizen of this country in an ordinary job would definately have lost that job already and most likely be answering charges of fraud.
