Yeah, sure, Milliband nominated for Transparency and Open Government award.

A case of crook Pols and their playthings I suppose.

The thrice disgraced - but perennially evergreen Mandy also indulged in strange financial maneuverings over his property - and some say that the Geoffrey Robinson "loan" was a payoff. Never!

Then there was the strange case of the Blair's search for property using the god offices of a convicted conman - which was at first denied and then admitted. With spin. Some say that the fraudster, Peter Foster, ws simply buying the property outright for the Balir's as a kickback or as a way of laundering kickback money. Never I say!

Then there is the case of Peter Watt, Labour's General Secretary who quit over accusations of improper behaviour in relationship to a property developer. Some say it was to pay bribes. Never!

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/pol...60585.html

Not to be outdone Home Secretary Jacqui Smith ran foul of the greased palm and smelly stuff by using £116,000.00 of taxpayers money improperly to rent a second home. It emerged that the three bedroom terraced house in south London owned by her sister was "designated" as Jacqui Smith's "main home". Some say this was an expenses fiddle allowing Smith to trouser £116,000.00 a year for dossing-down a few days a week in one of the her sisters bedrooms. Never!

Then there is he case of David Abrahams, the property developer at the heart of a Labour Party kickback scandal. It is said that Mr. Abrahams paid Labour under Blair upwards of £600,000.00 to make foreign policy decisions favourable to Israel. Never!

And I haven't plumbed the depths yet either.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
