Contemplation and Negotiation

As the UK's politicians contemplate and negotiate their way forward to govern they would do well to consider Ghandhi's seven sins:
  • Wealth without work
  • Pleasure without conscience
  • Knowledge without character
  • Commerce without morality
  • Science without humility
  • Worship without sacrifice
  • Politics without principle

  9. If only... You probably know this very old irish joke... St Patrick chased all snakes out of Ireland. Where did they go? They went to London and became politicians.
