highcirrus,

Would you have demanded the head of John Major? Would you have been equally keen to get rid of Alan Clarke? Did the Mail campaign for the resignation of Boris Johnson? So no, I wouldn’t say a minister screwing around = "A Government in Meltdown"

My point here is the BNP on Sunday is trying to stir up anything that discredits Labour whilst conveniently forgetting its somewhat more lenient stance over Tory peccadilloes, sleaze and incompetence. Their silence over the many Conservative 'incidents' 1979-87 is a matter of record. And this is my problem with journos acting as an opposition to a democratically elected government - who are they answerable to? The Press complaints commission? Bit of a joke that. Their owners? Hmmm, good chance of fair unbiased reporting? All this makes the Mail a discredited source – we know they’re working to an agenda and thus can’t be trusted with straight reporting.
