Dangerously Delusional
Hazel Blears is in line to win the ‘Smug Toady’ of the year award after her performance yesterday – 20th May 2009.
I was amazed at the level of denial that this woman seems to be in.
Either that or she is taking all of us as complete idiots. Probably a bit of both I expect.
The way she spoke, in order to try and appease her constituents no doubt, came across so grossly smug and self-satisfied as to defy belief.
I caught an interview that she gave for an outside news broadcast on Radio 4 yesterday. It was after her boss, a Mr Gordon ‘Gurner’ Brown, had said in a breakfast TV interview that ‘Hazel Blears behaviour regarding the MP expenses revelations, was totally inappropriate. Although, he added, she was doing a good job as Communities Minister.
Hazel obviously suffers from acute selective hearing issues. When challenged about the Prime Ministers assessment regarding her totally inappropriate behaviour, she promptly came back with;
“No actually the Prime Minister said that I was doing a good job and that is what I will continue to do as Minister of State.” It was said in a highly gloating tone of self-satisfaction of someone who believes they have got away with the crime.
Mind you it’s to be expected from such people so full of self-interest. Add to this the mixed messages dished out by our Gordon. I refer here to the ‘doing a good job’ and ‘totally inappropriate behaviour’ statements made about the same person in the same sentence.
She got caught ipso facto, withholding a tax payment, that somehow is ‘within the rules’ for MP’s when it comes to claiming second home expenses. So she obviously paid it back out of the kindness of her heart and sense of charity and not because it was deemed wrong and unacceptable by everyone else – MP’s excluded.
Hazels real awakening will come at the next general election when she will soundly be beaten at the polling booth by the people that really matter, her let down constituents. If there’s any justice she will also lose her deposit!
