(V): He should have realized that with just 3% of the vote he was not going to make it in politics and leave it at that. Then after he popped a few tires, he should have left it there. He's never have been caught. He proved he is dumb, dumber, and dumbest! He continues to pop tires! Did he think he could do that without being seen? He has no tech sense.
Emne: Re: Most politicians seem to suffer from that malady.
Artful Dodger: The main malady seems to be to ignore questions on live talks with news reporters.
eg... In a recent report on the possible cutting over a winter fuel allowance for OAP's The minister on camera would not reply to questions regarding the matter.
some background.... The winter fuel allowance has been an active topic at the moment regarding who gets it. Every OAP gets it now and there has been much talk on raising it because of the well above rates of inflation (3-4 times in some years) rises in gas, electric and other heating fuels..... because every year we have OAP's dying of hypothermia in the UK.. that figure because of rises in costs in energy has risen.
A few of the rich OAP's got together and started a system that they can give their fuel allowance to be redistributed to those living on state pensions. It took off and now there are various charities that have expanded the system.
It works... not perfectly, but it works.
Now someone has jumped on the band wagon in politics. Hope he fails. ;)
