Are you applying this to you too?
Why would you say that Declan?
What a hypocrite this woman is! She resigned only when it was very clear that there was a huge groundswell of opposition to the Iraq invasion – not before. She would have gained far more respect if she had resigned alongside and supported Robin Cook. Instead she waited until it looked like she would be on the right side. She sickens me – she is no better than Blair
To the Hague with her!!!
Yes make her suffer! banish her to the british politicians retirement complex the hague,we will never hear from her again and only see fleeting images of her on one jolly after another.Yes take that miss short and think yourself lucky!
