Right on Question Time


This week's Question Time has to be the most right-wing panel yet. Labour's Tory lookalike Caroline Flint, Orange Book co-author Daivd Laws, Toryboy Liam Fox, and that rightist witch Janet Daley all lead the way. The only vague glimmer of hope on the panel is Sir Christopher Meyer, the former British ambassodor to Washington who later did the long-overdue dirty on the US-arse-licking ordered by the British government. I'm not sure what to make of him, but I think he deserves some respect for his memoirs. 

And lo and behold Caroline Flint has just said "market forces have failed". Hallelujah. Does she mean it? Prove it. Start by introducing some serious punitive actions against the overzealous bankers.
