I am enjoying a spot of light Schadenfreude now over Liam Fox. He is a revoltingly far-right person, I have always found him dodgy in his presentation of anything - used to be a health spokesman - didn't like him then. Now everyone is sniffing around - he has a close friend - is it a case of cherchez l'homme? Surely it is a money scandal - no one is quite sure, but everyone is sniffing - because he is clearly lying about things. There is this odd little story about how he was burgled and the fact that he had a guest staying in the house was concealed. Why - is it because Tory Party Central Office knows he's gay and was covering up for him. When he says "I don't have a sexual relationship with Werrity" one immediately supplies the word "now".
There's nothing wrong with being gay, but perhaps he's so right wing he thinks there is. After all he's a married man - I wonder whether he has children - I've noticed a lot of these beard marriages are often childless - then again his "long-time girlfriend" was 37 when they married, so it may be an issue. On the other hand, if she was his "long-time girlfriend" why didn't they marry sooner if they intended to have children? But that's just a theory of mine and there may be all sorts of reasons. He does have an odd track record on gay mattes.
Tonight's discovery that actually, rather thanbeing his partner - Werrity is a chum who was subsidised to trot around with him, to help him keep to his right-wing ideology and policies - is interesting. It's about lobbying - having presumed, like most of the media it was either about money or sex, it is, unusually for politics - about power! Or rather, influence.
Anyway, the great thing is, it has taken our minds off the unemployment figures - now at their highest since the last Tory government. And apparently the North-east of England is the worst hit - so much for those efforts to "even out" the economy in the regions.
Wrote my first copy for the dummy issue of the Thanetarium... fun, but I think the business plan is more important.
