Weep for England

Two conflicting items from this morning's news radio: First - Harriet Harman is taking steps to ensure Members of Parliament do not have to fully disclose their expenses: Second - due to the provisions of a little reported Private Members Bill passed through Parliament, from today, employers can be jailed for breaking the plethora of regulations regarding so-called Health and Safety. Typical of the vermin infesting the green benches of Westminster, grab all you can get and keep it quiet and criminalise and jail those in society trying to give work to their fellow citizens in the face of the growing depression. Jailing any MP who voted for the above Bill and claimed expenses over and above a very restrictive limit would be a saner action it seems to me.
