Goodbye Smith and Blears

O happy day. The expenses scandal and general bad feeling towards Gordon Brown has forced out the two cabinet ministers I hate the most: Jacqui Smith and Hazel Blears. Smith lacks any kind of imagination, and has tried to advance the surveillance state without any thought to future consequences, and Blears is patronising and does not show the proper respect for freedom of speech. She once said that she thought writers had 'the responsibility not to offend the sensibilities of religious people'. Perhaps it is religious people who have the responsibility to respect people’s right to freedom of speech? Good riddance to the pair of them.
