An email from the LPUK Party Chairman: Dear [LPUK] Member It has been sometime since I put out a request for more donations. 2010 is going to the year that one statist government is going to be thrown out to be replaced by another equally big state government. We are on a very long road, and as the St Albans campaigning day proved last Saturday public confidence in big party politics with big state...

The second annual PoliticsHome superpoll of the marginals is out today, based on YouGov interviews with 33,610 people. They polled everyone, it seems. They certainly polled me - did they poll you? The methodology seems pretty sound. Anthony Wells grouped seats with similar characteristics - London commuter belt, Southwest Liberal/Con marginals etc - and got a representative sample in each group to...

JACK STRAW says criticisms of Baroness Scotland for employing an illegal immigrant cleaner are sexist, because if she was a man she’d probably have nothing to do with the hiring of domestic staff and so could pass the buck to someone else.

Schadenfreude is a terrible thing. But let's face it, the buck-toothed troughing cunt is more deserving than most : The Bar Standards Board has received a number of complaints about the beleaguered Cabinet minister, who was fined £5,000 for employing an illegal immigrant. The development further intensifies pressure on Lady Scotland to step down amid growing concern within Labour that the affair...

Baroness Scotland gets caught out by her own legislation and yes she should be sacked. This odius, vindictive woman pushed through this unjust legislation and now its truly biting her in the arse....Good! This clearly exposes how wrong this legislation is. It is the governments job to make sure that people are not here illegally and as a result of their outright incompetence, they pass the illegal...

Medal for bomber-tackling marine A Royal Marine who saved the lives of 30 comrades by rugby-tackling a would-be suicide bomber in Afghanistan is to be awarded the Military Cross. Sgt Noel Connolly, of Manchester, threw himself at the Taliban fighter, who was loaded with 150lb (68kg) of explosives, near a disused school in April. To call Sgt Noel Connolly a Hero doesn’t seem adequate somehow....

bit more. We used to have a labrador who behaved like Gordon. Whenever he broke wind, he'd look away in the misguided belief that if he couldn't see you, you couldn't see him and the source of the foul smell enveloping the living room would remain a mystery. Be in no doubt that despite his desperation to pass the buck, Gordon Brown is up to his neck in the decision to release the Lockerbie bomber....

If there's one thing that's worse than releasing a convicted mass murderer on cynical grounds, to help with trade between two countries, it must be to play politics on a decision that was in fact made in good faith on purely humanitarian grounds. The nauseating sight of seeing all three other main parties in Scotland , Conservatives, Labour and the Lib Dems, all opposing the decision made by Kenny...

HOPEFULLY THIS is one of the last times I write about Lockerbie . I've become sickened by people passing the buck to Scotland, as if the government in Westminster had absolutely no role whatsoever in the decision is extremely naive. Cowardice does not come close to describing this. All those people who go on about how important the union is have done their countrymen north of the border a great disservice....

Mostly the police forces are served by men and women who want to do a good job for society. Just as it is clear that only a few MPs are keen to exploit the allowances they get, so it is that bad apples are few in the police force. Human nature is ever thus, that however well-intentioned the organisation may be in its public interaction, some may have their own interpretation. Now there were two police...

Sitting in the dock, Justice Secretary Kenny Macaskill gave just the hint of a nervous smile. All around him clustered his accusers - who want to give him early release for bad behaviour. Early release from the Cabinet, that is. His crime? A "glitch" (his word) in prison records which allowed Brian "the Hawk" Martin to be in an open prison from which he absconded. Those records...
