Kinnock

Amanda Platell writes in today's Daily Mail:
Neil Kinnock says we should ditch the British mile and replace it with kilometres to bring us in line with the rest of Europe. This, in a week when Britain came top of a poll of countries for being polite, honest, trustworthy, and intelligent. Perhaps that explains why Kinnock is so ill at ease with all things British.

Polite? Kinnock is one of the rudest men in politics. Honest? He presided over one of the greatest periods of EU corruption. Trustworthy? For years his entire family has gorged on the EU gravy train. Intelligent? This is the hypocrite who villified the House of Lords only to wrap himself in ermine.


Nice one, Amanda! You have identified another clear candidate for the 8th Circle (though to be fair he was already included under the heading "self-serving politicians").
