ReplyDeleteOh ridofbrain, that was stale.
ReplyDeleteRight up there with Iggy riding a bicycle without a helmet. Is this really the best Kinsella could do? What a has been.
ReplyDeleteGotta agree with ridofbrain - Tory legal and ethical breaches are so routine they're hardly noteworthy.
ReplyDeleteSomeone please correct me if events have changed, but last I heard Kinsella and Iggy's team don't see eye to eye.
ReplyDeleteYou really need to keep up on these things ridofbrain.
