Culture Secretary

[BillyStubbsTears]

Yeah, I know it's an oxymoron that Nadine Dorries is Culture Secretary, but it's worth it seeing her regularly humiliate herself at Committee.

She's wanting to sell off C4.

A few weeks ago she asked why it should continue to get tax payer subsidies. It doesn't.

Today she said 96% of people in a consultancy programme said they wanted it to be sold off. The real figure was 96% saying they DIDN'T want it selling off.

Now this.

It shows how far society has advanced that someone so unsuited to Darwinian evolution can even survive, never mind get in the Cabinet.

There is a splendid populist email doing the rounds with a link to La Dorries inbox. It sugegsts we all email to tell her we are one of the 96% who oppose the sell off. Chortle, chortle.

I bet she won't get the abuse on here that Diane Abbott did.

I bet she won't get the abuse on here that Diane Abbott did.

Probably because she can do basic arithmetic.

[BobG]

Diane? Yes. I believe she can.

I bet she won't get the abuse on here that Diane Abbott did.

She's in the same bracket, neither fit to be anywhere near government.

One is. One isn't. Go figure.

''A complaint from the Liberal Conspiracy website, regarding Dorries' use of the House of Commons' Portcullis emblem on her blog, had been upheld in March 2008, on the basis that Dorries "gave the impression it had some kind of parliamentary endorsement or authority".[55]

On 21 October 2010, the MP's standards watchdog criticised Dorries for maintaining a blog which would "mislead constituents" as to how much actual time she was spending in her constituency. Dorries announced: "my blog is 70% fiction and 30% fact! It is written as a tool to enable my constituents to know me better and to reassure them of my commitment to Mid Bedfordshire. I rely heavily on poetic licence and frequently replace one place name/event/fact with another."[56] Referring to her main home being in Gloucestershire,[57] she said: "I have always been aware that should my personal domestic arrangements become the knowledge of my political opponents, they would be able to exaggerate that to good effect.
