  • David Wright: Surely Lord Tebbit should know by now that nobody is to blame for anything. Saying so only reduces their self-esteem. Everything is the fault of somebody else, unless you are a motorist! (27 January 2009)

  • David Wright: A very sensible appraisal of the proposals, in my opinion. The whole idea reeks of expanded bureaucracy without which we can well do. It would be far better to do away with all offices and adopt... (1 April 2008)

  • david skinner: The more I think about, the answer is that Ben Summerskill knows that pursuing nasty elements will most certainly provoke a violent backlash on the homosexual. The BNP need Christians to absorb... (29 March 2008)

  • david skinner: Maybe Ben Summerskill knows the answer to this question. However, one suggestion might be that laws and rules are difficult to apply to desperate and rebellious people but not on the biddable. As... (28 March 2008)

  • David Wright: It is good to know that there is one in the House who is still in touch with the realities of the lives of ordinary - and extraordinary people - who live outside its overheated confines. (13 December 2007)

  • Mark Bestford: Kieran, that's quite a blinkered viewpoint. We use the term terrorist in our own localised context. We tend to forget that it covers a wide range of sins as it were. Remember Nelson Mandela... (25 June 2007)
