On self-parody

The CP reveal the profound message sent from a spokeswoman for Gordon O'Connor - apparently reflecting the department's line sent to MPs discussing O'Connor's future:
"If any of you give credit to the rumour that MND (minister of national defence) will resign, will look studip (sic). It is not true he will NOT resign."
I can only presume that O'Connor has surrounded himself with such bright lights in an effort to seem more eloquent and competent than the people around him. But this may be the most frightening indication yet of just what kind of dull minds the Cons are happy to put in positions of responsibility if accompanied by fealty to the party line...and one more strong example of why they shouldn't be in a position to choose the people responsible for managing the country for long.
