Another day another scandal…Today we have the Chairman of the Conservative Party who is fighting for his political career after he was found to have had to pay a significant fine because he failed to pay his taxes. He claims it was a ‘mistake‘ but if reports are to be believed he had to pay a multi million pound fine – some mistake. Oh and by the way when he was negotiating this settlement he was the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the man responsible for collect all the taxes! You cannot make this up. He will have to go and it looks like the PM is getting ready to dump him – but not yet. Why you may also ask? Who knows but every minute he stays put he is doing more and more damage to the tattered reputation of the government and the Conservative Party.

Another fine mess coming down the pike is the is the local elections this year. This year we’re supposed to produce photo ID – stop voter fraud is the reason but many people suspect something more sinister is the real reason. Anyway, having to produce a photo ID is not widely known and you can guarantee there will be many elderly voters who will turn up and will be told they can’t vote because they don’t have photo ID. It has the potential for causing chaos ( you can picture the scene now ‘My great grandad fought the Nazi and he wasn’t allowed to vote..’ or something along those line). I suspect the Labour party will be on the lookout for such a case and boy will it make a stink when it hits the social media/ media. Who’s bright idea was this?

I don’t know if you can smell it but the wiff in the air is the carcass of the decaying Tory Government.
