Norman Baker resigns!

[B.W.]

Hmmm... on balance, I think this is not good news... the tw@t will probably spend even more time trying to kill our club...

He is only resigning from the front bench though, he will still be able to spend his free time harrassing a small football club. Call the police

Exactly. Backbenchers can cause more trouble.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

He will want to spend his time securing his future as an MP.

And he's not stupid. He'll know that stepping up the campaign against the Albion is a vote loser.

Stepping up the campaign against the Newhaven incinerator is a vote winner ... and he knows that he can do that better as a back-bencher, rather than as a front-bench spokesperson on environment issues.

The reason for this is that all national political parties know that the environmental case for incineration is very strong (whatever the local campaigners in Newhaven say).

Some years ago, I was at a public meeting where Baker was campaigning against further landfill. "Incineration is the answer" was his line then.

Today he'll be backing whatever option wins him most votes, regardless of what the Lib Dems national policy might be.

We all knew he's a bloody hypocrit anyway, after saying he would go along with ODPM's decision, which ever way it went.

I DON'T TRUST HIM ONE IOTA........THIS COULD BE BAD NEWS FOR US.

He realised by staying in the LibDem cabinet he would become a MINGER.
