British politicians exempt themselves from warrantless spying under the Snoopers Charter

I did work out once that if you lived in West London, investing the £100000 or so it costs to buy a peerage from Blair or Cameron was quite good value for money - you could live off the expenses quite comfortably, a much better investment than a pension.

I am afraid we get the politicians and policies that the most stupid 52% of the country deserve. I am beginning to suspect that social media actually makes democracy impossible, rather than before when it was just difficult. Government of the twitterati by the Murdoch readership.

The only bright spots this week have been Goldsmith out - two cheers for the Richmond electorate - and the Daily Mail’s holding group having to report that profits and assets are at risk due to leaving the EU - which they campaigned for.
