As for having a go at Andrew Mitchell's job, let's see, what was his last position? Oh yes, Minister for Overseas Development, where he oversaw a 37% rise in the overseas aid budget (whilst people in this country were suffering from government cuts) and lavished our money on the likes of India (which can afford a space programme), China and Saudi Arabia. Yep, he did a great job there!
To be honest I try and stay away from the news as much as possible so no I was not fully aware of anything else that was said. But there has been so much attention given to the p-word that I couldn't avoid hearing about that.

I'm talking about the job of constituency MP not being a minister or anything like that. Would you want to do it? cos I'm sure I wouldn't. And being a minister etc is more about government policy than personal preference.
