I've played against ex world champion (apparently such a thing exists) Nick Palmer, the ex Lab MP for Broxtowe who is fighting Anna Soubry for his old seat back.
Andy Cooke, for those of you who know him, is a demon player too.

I think the US system of recruiting Cabinet ministers from the private sector with MPs vetting panels and a nomination process is a very good idea. It will become almost essential for us to adopt when the HoL is changed and we lose the trick of creating a peer in order to give someone a Govt ministerial job. Or when we pick someone at random and give them an unaccountable 'job' like this.
It gives some scrutiny and avoids what we've got here - a "tsar" or whatever who is appointed without overview.
Carol (and I am genuinely on nodding terms with her so I can do that) and others like her should be scrutinised and approved for jobs like that - and then paid and their reports taken seriously. In this case it's so arms length that there's no point.
And MILF? I first met her when she'd just become Mrs King which was a bit of a passion killer. But from behind my anonymity I can freely say that...yes. In spades.

Remember that the CRB were/are allowed to record unconfirmed and unverified denunciations by your neighbours? Now being libertarian (ish, I'm not jumping on the purity test treadmill) now, politically, this could make me a 'danger' if I'm reported.
I made a comment on this at Sue's place - Muffled Vociferation - that this could put my gun license in jeopardy for example. Is this the intention? That anyone who believes in a small State can be blacklisted from govt jobs maybe?
It's not a slippery slope; it's a vertical cliff face.

As to your 'sensible hat on' part of the post - humour keeps us sane...keeps perspective....keeps us rational. If that changed we might as well be in France.
Plus with all of these "celebs" dying at 27 I'm counting down the days until Justin Bieber gets there...
