Thirty pieces of silver?

What a shambles!

Do we really want another year of people like Caroline Flint in charge?

I certainly wouldn't want here 'backing me' - I would be expecting a knife at any time. LOL

At a time when hundreds of thousands of people face losing their jobs we see cabinet ministers sacrificing their last shreds of credibility and morality to hang on to theirs.

Flint at Health? Elvira Mistress of the Dark to minister to the sick and needy?

What a hoot if true. I take it all back Gordon Brown does have a sense of humour after all.

But any job, any job at all which puts Flint and Cooper on our telly screen is good news for me ...

...and the manufacturers of sick bags.

please bring in exams for prospective mps - anyone wanting to stand at election should pass an exam (probably similar to the old civil service/foreign service exams)that test abilities in english language, history, economics and current affairs.

perhaps it will ensure that the brainless and spineless morons like flint will fall at the first hurdle rather than being in a position to act as robotic lobby fodder.

independent minds (with some knowledge outside wimmins groups and uni politics would be much appreciated).

can someone in power not take up this idea.....

perhaps i am urinating in the wind on this!

Dear Peter

What reforms will 'Skin' Flint bring in to make sure that the undeserving poor are denied health care?

I see her as a horrible individual, what a gaffe by Brown.

Yours sincerely

And why not throw in the ermine for "Lord" Hutton?

On BBC at 1pm, Sugar`s appointment was given a right roasting by a Labour peeress and former party treasurer. She said it sent all the wrong signals.

PS Politics Home linked to Hertfordshire CC results where the BNP won more votes than Labour.

Ah, but she's got nice legs though.

You have nothing to feel guilty about.

Has it not dawned on you that all of the feminist sisterhood are the most sexist of all.

Guilt-ridden sexist (now cured)

Aaahhh! I've just heard that the little sh**e has resigned. Last night Flint was proud to serve in Brown's Cabinet; today she jumps ship because Brown hasnt promoted her, accusing him of 'female window-dressing'.

I will never lust after her legs ever again!
