Things you thought you’d never say

“I’m voting for George Galloway”.
Admittedly I have context on my side here in that he’s up for eviction in Big Brother, and I’d like to see him off our screens for a bit. The papers are full of letters from his consituents, complaining that by going on telly, he’s drawing his MP’s salary and not doing any work on their behalf (especially given that he’s needed next week to debate Crossrail, which is going to chop big holes in his consituency). But a quick perusal of his Commons voting records shows he’d not be doing very much anyway (he’s 634th out of 644 MPs in the number of votes he actually bothered to show up for).

All of this obviously being my own thoughts and nothing you can pin on my employers present or past, my union, my local party, my mates, or anyone else you might confuse me with - most of whom don't agree with me about very much anyway.
