So as a Welsh citizen, who lives 2 miles from the border with England, pop over the border, drive 260 miles and then 2  miles into Wales, before returning by the same route.

And then say;

Hey I only drove 4 miles!

Think of the poor police men and women who have to enforce this nonsense!

 

Just thought of something, are English citizens only allowed to drive 5 miles in Wales?

Don't kid yourself. A spad is not a puppeteer. Little Dom might influence policy but he's replaceable like everyone else. It'll blow over. Politics is a road show and things move on.

 

 

 

I wish I shared your optimism.
When was the last time a 'SPAD' had the ears of the nation upon them from Downing Street's back yard?

Not point scoring between left and right. Just thinking there's more stuff out there. What's the local news say about Nissan in Sunderland? Any different from the BBC?

Most local news is through 'Reach PLC', so you get whatever the party line is. BBC have suprised me by turning on the Government.

Tony Blair was, and still is, a shitehawk.

I think that the dynamics are different this time. They've given him a platform to (defend) himself.

Thanks for pointing it out like that though. It's good to look at things from different angles.

This is the only type of Spad I like.
