Lost In The Post?

There is still no sign that the Monarchy (Abolition), Public Services (Abolition), Strong Unions (Abolition) and Rural Communities (Abolition) Bill will ever be brought back before the House of Commons. Jolly good. Is this perhaps because the Government is now so reliant on the media support of the estimable Geraldine “You Put Yourself In The Window, Caroline” Smith? Geraldine Smith is also a good, and I mean good, Catholic…

  4. She certainly is a Catholic, though, and very critical of the horrendous Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill. The old Archbishop of Cardiff (I forget his name) used to say that people who had been Catholic pupils at non-Catholic schools were often sounder than those who had come up through the Catholic school system. Still, it seems odd in her case.
