There’s reason why flame throwers were used today. Read the news about Khamis Ghaddafi and Mohammed Mohtar? No? Well there lies your answer to the flame throwers.

Quite frankly I’m not so much in favour of a NFZ as much as I am for targeted air-strikes and now i’m begining to think that they could actually topple Gaddafi all on their own, without anyone’s help.

Cathy Ashton is part of the legacy of that shambolic period of British politics that was the Blair-Brown administration.

An erstwhile great country was reduced to the brink of bankruptcy. The economy of the country, for more than a decade, was built on a mountain of debt.

Ashton was one of the Blair Babes. Her CV is shocking. It lacks everything.

Unfortunately she was offloaded onto the EU. Pure political expedience.

Collateral damage, yes. None so great as that caused by Ashton’s landing in Brussels.
