Brown tells us (only when faced with a challenge at last weeks hustings) that he supports a more open Government, blah! blah! blah! Within a week he and his cronies are giving time to, and supporting, a private members bill by a TORY WHIP, gagging FoI enquiries to MP's and Members of the house of Lords. These same Labour Parliamentary 'freedom fighters'  recently talked out an EDM which offered workers some employment rights.

No wonder Brown didn't want an election? He couldn't have survived the debate without showing his true colours. Let that be the first of many lessons learned from the sychophantic MP's who voted for a coronation instead of a democratic debate.

Just announced on Channel 4 news, Andrew McKinley, MP, becomes the 308th nominating MP for Gordon Brown, leaving a challange now impossible. A very sad day for the dermocratic process of the Labour Party.

The Gall of these people will never cease to amaze and disgust me; Last night on Newsnight 'Gentleman' Jim Fitzpatrick defended New Labour's staunch fight against the agencies who are involved in the growing slave labour market in the UK. Speaking in reply to the charge that his Government do nothing to stop the systematic exploitation of workers, who are forced to live and work in appaling conditions with no employment rights to protect them, he said "We are conducting a wide ranging consultation on the operation of employment agencies". This is the same 'Gentleman' who on the 2nd March this year 'talked out' Paul Farrelly's bill to give employment rights to agency workers, despite the fact that 118 of his colleague Labour MP's stayed in the House on a Friday afternoon to support the Bill.

On a topical note, contrast the above with the disgraceful New Labour tacit support to resurrect a recently 'talked out' bill. It would appear that, despite the Warwick Agreement, this Government is more interested in supporting the gagging of the Freedom of Information Act than they are in giving workers basic human rights.
