Dictators kill to stay in power, because that's how far they can get away with. Dictators carry out election fraud, because that's how far they can get away with. Politicians lie to the public, because that's how far they can get away with.
Its all down to how much they can get away with. Mugabe, Hussain, Gaddaffi, Idi Amin and many others are on the list. I have no doubt that Mugabe would copy N Korea if he could.
Interestingly, DC10 man has a point. Labour/Bliar lied lied lied to hold on to power. When Gordon Brown took over, witnesses say he went power crazy. It is my belief that he would have done a hell of a lot more if he could have gotten away with it. We had a lucky escape from that man (in my opinion of course)
Cor blimey ! That's a real stretch,ever thought of writing a column for the 'Fail'
Just to be on the safeside I was clapping while reading about the 'dear' leader.
