If you're mate's going to take any questions from that then I'd like to see him ask one's suggested by adr/opso and airborne_artist. Boy would I love to know the real answers to them though. As Razor61 rightly suggests, even if he did ask them, I doubt we'd never get a proper answer. Politicians are ****, they NEVER answer the question asked!
....and we all know it's because they don't have a clue, or the answers for that matter!
