Well I suppose a half hearted cheer for the original H-Block for not voting in favour of the fellow, particularly Heaton-Harris who must have broken the whip. But for pities sake, what is wrong with the Tories? (I hold out no hope for the others) Come on guys you are under a great deal of scrutiny about misuse of funds yourselves and you vote for this shower. Or is it that you think you might get a better deal under him?
