Cheerio Tevere

Time for a reordering of priorities. 

Derek Conway has gone. Good riddance. There's no place in public life for people who steal from the taxpayer.

The closure of Tevere, however, is terribly sad - especially given that it's been bought by a chain that wants to keep the poor, poor. I spent over a decade of my life working within a five minute walk of Tevere. At the SMF, I was thirty seconds away. I can't begin to count the number of omelettes I had there, let alone the cups of teas and coffee. There's nothing like a really good greasy spoon.
