Something we all have to guard against, Jacqueline. I was encouraged by the outcome and it gave me confidence that behaviour like Banks' brings down those who indulge in it - individuals and Governments :-)
G is also for Greedy. Sadly got wrapt up in believing in his own sense of importance. My concerns is what young people will think when they see our PM making a fuss around someone who was at that time acting corruptly. What do they believe in now. Is it now every man for himself and stuff the others. Great example and we think sports people need to be role models.
Whilst I agree it is good Banks was found guilty, it is sad he is found guilty because he hid donations the wrong way.
In the same election race Len Brown had similar donations but hid them in a trust. Just like Liarbour who wrote the legislation in that way and hide their donations through trusts. Where is the clarity in that?
