Funny how you never posted it though when Blair and Brown were courting the city of London Interesting argument Tony - especially when you look back at the backers of the Tory party and how long they have been ploughing millions into the coffers of the Tory party and how they are being looked after.

Risso Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 It wasn't "the Witch" who gave all the powers the Bank of England enjoyed to the utterly hopeless FSA, was it? I think you'll find that was Gordon Brown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drat01 Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 http://politicalscrapbook.net/2013/07/union-linked-candidate-margaret-thatcher-in-corrupt-selection/ Here’s a union-linked candidate that the Tories probably won’t be complaining about: Margaret Thatcher, once a member of a Unite precursor union, the Association of Scientific workers. Mrs Thatcher’s biographer, former Telegraph editor Charles Moore, explained how Maggies selection vote was rigged by Haden Blatch the then chairman of Finchley Conservative Association: “Mrs Thatcher had not really won the vote. Her rival, Thomas Langton, had just pipped her. Blatch senior, however, was very keen on Mrs Thatcher” Blatch had explained the matter to his son, who got in contact with Moore after Thatcher’s death: “‘I “lost” two of Langton’s votes,’ he told his son, and he announced her victory.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
