    So which should I be more concerned about when considering her fitness for the job: her brother's activities, or her husband's?

    Or are we now allowed to judge a woman on her own merits, given that it's 2014 and they're allowed to vote and own property and all kinds of tulip like that?
    She also sits in the House of Lords so she'll be investigating her fellow old fuddy duddies and decently charming old chaps that enjoy a Pimms or two and then again:

    They should have appointed a sitting judge who can use legal powers to call up witnesses but nope...
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

      +1. Expect some information, probably about MPs that died many years ago, to come out usually the day after a terrorist attack. The allegations about the living will probably never come to light, sadly.

      I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

        BBC News - Butler-Sloss: I won't quit as head of abuse inquiry

        But Labour's Simon Danczuk said her position was tainted because her late brother, Sir Michael Havers, was Attorney General in the 1980s.

        I will send an email to him later. A politician who will stand up for what is right - what a star.

          I am surprised I need to explain this to you.
          Oh that's right, there are no public sector contractors..

            Looking at British Leyland, the management wrecked the company far more than the unions. The Italian Job found they were most unhelful. The professionals were forced to turn to Ford.

            The issue was alot of hangers on (then called management) doing nothing except sponging.

            Now we call them recruitment agents. They can't even be bothered to look after their kids when they go on holiday thus exposing them to celebrities.....

                    I am not sure what point you are trying to make about recruitment consultants but the problem with BL was that there was no competitive market for manufacturing and selling cars. If there had been bad management would have been weeded out by the markets.

                      The computer/internet age was the driver, anyone who thinks different is deluded..
