Voderman is just a media whore who will say anything to get her name in the papers - as, come to think of it, is Lembit these days.Siônnynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00021974709953206048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-985080357558043054.post-15254916617563642642011-08-30T11:59:11.065+01:002011-08-30T11:59:11.065+01:00Great work from M H, exposing the double standards...Great work from M H, exposing the double standards as usual.Welsh Ramblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17585109264200933570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-985080357558043054.post-36777517014833365682011-08-29T21:08:10.737+01:002011-08-29T21:08:10.737+01:00Of course we should laugh off insults.

He needs to be kicked out at the next election.Siônnynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00021974709953206048noreply@blogger.com
