Con Hold: Bracknell

May 24th, 2009 Posted in UK Politics by

These three words will flash up at about 2am on election night across our screens.

Despite claiming just yesterday that he believed he had 75% support at the public meeting in West Berkshire, the deeply dodgy Andrew MacKay will not seek re-election.

He is not the first to step down – and dozens more may follow.

He must be made to repay the vast sums of money he and his wife (Julie Kirkbride) wrongly claimed from the taxpayer. Hopefully, he and she will do this swiftly.

Kirkbride presumably also gets plugged. She can surely never again participate in public life.

The only real pity in all this is that the British electorate may not have a chance to punish these villains.

That might have to left to our courts and our prisons.

  1. Simon Says:

    So we’ll end up with a corrupt and authoritarian Conservative Government instead of a corrupt and authoritarian Labour one. There is no one to vote for if you want an end to all this (I wouldn’t trust the Liberals either given their referendum behaviour and Huhnes anti free speech rant). A lot of people think that way so it will be interesting to see if an alternative emerges.

    Pretty well anything would be preferable to one of the main three parties.
