"A GOVERNMENT minister was today under fire after berating voters for being "so bloody miserable" in the face in the economic downturn. Tom Harris, a Transport Minister and MP for Glasgow South, said that despite the recent credit squeeze, people in Britain had never been so wealthy. But, writing in his blog on his website, he complained that people seemed to be afflicted by "crippling levels of cynicism and pessimism".
Is it any wonder that the voters are afflicted by "crippling levels of cynicism and pessimism" given the calibre and lack of integrity of some of our political leaders and their governmental flunkies? Step forward Mr Harris. Take a bow. At least he recognises it.
