Has Ms Anne Widdecombe let the cat out of the bag about the true meaning of politics to a politican?
In an unguarded moment Ms Anne Widdecombe said in a newspaper article
‘That is what politics is – a kaleidoscope of shifting alliances. Let’s face it, Denis Skinner and I could drink on some issues!’
Or maybe her animal passions ran away with her!
I naively thought that a politician was supposed to represent their constituents!

The Stranger (Newspaper) $89.22 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The Stranger is an alternative weekly newspaper in Seattle, Washington, USA. The Stranger was founded by Tim Keck, who had previously cofounded the satirical newspaper The Onion, and cartoonist James Sturm. Its first issue came out on September 23, 1991. The paper is distributed to local businesses, newsstands, and newspaper boxes free of charge every Thursday. It calls itself Seattles Only Newspaper, an expression of its disdain for Seattles two dailies (the Seattle Times and the now defunct print version of the] Seattle PostIntelligencer) and The Strangers main rival, the Seattle Weekly. The paper regularly covers Seattle City Council politics. As with The Onion, its tone is highly ironic. In its early days, The Stranger had a print run of 20,000, and was focused in Seattles University District. The paper was a single sheet wrapped around a wad of coupons for local businesses.
