So Hazel Blears has resigned from the cabinet. Whoop-dee-fucking-doo. There have been several other resignations from the cabinet today. The most significant has clearly been Jacqui Smith's resignation as Home Secretary: The third most powerful political brief in the UK.
So, why is the Guardian focussing on Blears' resignation?
Why would a national newspaper focus on anything other than the most important political story of the day?
The Graun even goes to incredible lengths to defend the Arch-Cockweasel's retirement in graphic terms.
I fucking HATE Hazel Blears!
Amended 05-06-09:
Thanks to my anonymous friend in the comments, who pointed out that I had slurred the noble Clare Short by putting her in Jacqui Smith's shoes as Home Secretary. Not quite sure how that happened. Wishful thinking getting the better of me, maybe.
I think you will find that the Home Secretary was Jacqui Smith.
ReplyDeleteOr are you being satirical?
Wow! How did I screw that up so badly?
ReplyDeleteApologies for the (ahem) balls-up.
