Well whatever might be said about Ashcroft at least he didn't wind up a pension fund and stitch his staff up.

But yeah, let's keep talking about Ashcroft rather than the non-dom Lord is under investigation for claiming 38k in expenses under dubious circumstances and stitched up his staff.
Laughable and hypocritical the way Labour keep banging on about this to try and avoid dealing with the actual issues but just about sums up this government, all politicking and spin and not nearly enough governance, though given the damage they've inflicted on the occasions they have governed that's perhaps for the best.
