This is not turning out to be a very good week for the Government and Gordon Brown as the Northern Rock crisis worsens, and a bungling Government department has lost 25 million people’s personal details in the post. It is now reported that this bungling Government department has been hit by more than 2,100 reported breaches in security in the last year, clearly indicating that ”Dicsgate” was not a one off and to make things worse they have now decided to write out to all 25 million people whose details have been lost to say sorry at our expense.

Public confidence in the Government is starting to drain away, Mr Darling was seen to be a safe pair of hands by Gordon Brown, that doesn’t say much for the rest of the Cabinet.

And to make matters worse England have failed to qualify for the Euro 2008, after a dismal display against Croatia last night.  

I have to also mention the politics show on BBC1 last Sunday, that saw the two Liberal Democrat Leadership contenders turn on one another as the shows host produced a document  that had come out of Chris Huhnes’ office, entitled Calamity Clegg criticising him for flip flopping on policy. What once had been such a dull leadership contest has suddenly turned into a fight night special, looking forward to round two. If you missed it click on Calamity Clegg to catch it again, well worth the watch.
