MP's fears of expenses 'suicide' - complete rot

Nadine Dorries likened the Daily Telegraph's campaign to a witch-hunt. The atmosphere at Westminster has become so "unbearable" due to expenses revelations that a suicide is feared, one MP named in the row has warned. Tory Nadine Dorries, who the Daily Telegraph said only spends weekends and holidays in her designated main home, warned MPs were "beginning to crack". But Labour's Stephen Pound said MPs did not deserve sympathy, adding: "It's nobody's fault except our own.


IMO: Dorries is either playing to the gallery, is unbelievably naive, or more likely simply has lost touch with reality. Apparently she finally realises that the Tories won't get any votes from all this. I would never vote for such a person as Dorries who seems to openly confess mental instability within the Tory party. When I think of the poor people in the UK, some starving and dying of cold in the winter, the bashings and knifings by the unemployed, the beatings and buggery by the "faith schools" brigade, the drunkeness and usage of cheap Afghan cocaine everywhere in the UK, inspired by Dick Cheney and others of his ilk and all the rest of it - the idea of being overburdened with worry about the possible suicide of a Tory MP because he had claimed too much for his expenses, seems droll and laughable at best. And there is no sane comparison between the truthful revelations of MP fraud and corruption in the UK with McCarthyism. Probably unlike Nadine Dorries, I do know something of McCarthyism and more than one innocent victim of it- she is just talking complete rot. This sort of thing does harm to Westminster and probably Dorries should have the whip withdrawn from her if she keeps it up. Without being unfair, some newspaper pictures of Dorries during her rhetoric and pictures of a pig having its dinner removed from it could be placed in the Private Eye with switched captions - though I am too polite to send them in.
