Flash Gordon?


Courtesy of the Herald Diary, "MEMBERS of Parliament: what a hard-working bunch they are. abour's Ochil and South Perthshire MP, Gordon Banks, put out a press release this week stating that: "Gordon was busier than usual in Parliament last week as he took part in four separate debates." Three of the debates were on the same day, and in two of them Gordon merely asked one question. So he spoke in parliament on two days last week, and that merited a press release. Well done, that man."

He's been a busy boy or maybe not. Mr Banks gets his first "menshie" on Mr Smith's blog. For the record, according to various parliamentary monitoring sites, he is "above average" in terms of parliamentary activity, albeit that he never rebels against the government line. A safe pair of hands.
