What we want you to do for us is in upper case lettering. You seem, so often, unable to identify what it is we want you to do. We hope this is helpful.
Both Nick Clegg and David Cameron, prominent politicians, can now be proved to have lied in speeches, which were televised, to gain a personal advantage in their political life. Such activity MUST be made illegal and the punishment at the very least should be a ten year prison term and a lifetime ban from ANY UK public office
