Tom Watson non-answer of the day

This is exactly the sort of stonewalling crap that winds me up the most.
Grant Shapps: To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster how much has been spent on media training for each Minister in his Department in each of the last three years; how many sessions have been provided; and who provided the training.

Mr. Watson: Training is provided to Ministers as necessary in order to carry out their duties effectively under the “Ministerial Code”.
Tom Watson claims to be all in favour of making Government more accessible and providing information. The rank hypocrisy of his "answers" suggests he's disingenuous on that point.

What a jerk. In what world is than an acceptable answer? In the government of course. Pathetic...

You believe what a Labour Minister claims; how naive.
