The Lefties are getting restless!

Labour MP Gordon Prentice, for it is he, is not a happy chappy it seems. He has been asking the Duchy Lancaster and Prime minister about the cost of an event held last week at Downing Street where 60 members of the public were invited to a "citizens forum" to discuss Blair's pointless policy review.

He didn't get a straight answer from Hilary Armstrong on the cost she simply referred him back to when she said the estimated cost was going to be £90,000 instead (I am assuming this means the real cost exceeded that else why avoid the question). He then followed up his question by asking her,

"if she will invite 60 randomly selected members of the Labour Party into Downing street to discuss the issues raised in the Government’s policy review."

You'd think, after all this time, he'd realise that the one group Blair is unlikely to ever listen to (if he ever does indeed actually listen) is the Labour Party - especially the wing Prentice belong too.
