! This post hasn't been updated in over a year. A lot can change in a year including my opinion and the amount of naughty words I use. There's a good chance that there's something in what's written below that someone will find objectionable. That's fine, if I tried to please everybody all of the time then I'd be a Lib Dem (remember them?) and I'm certainly not one of those. The point is, I'm not the kind of person to try and alter history in case I said something in the past that someone can use against me in the future but just remember that the person I was then isn't the person I am now nor the person I'll be in a year's time.
The drunken failure, Charles Kennedy, has been caught smoking on a train.
The former leader of the Illiberal Dipshits was not given an illegal on-the-spot fine but was given a talking to by British Transport Police. The ginger whinger apaprently told officers that he thought he was allowed to lean out of the window and smoke without breaking the law.
What an utter crock of shit! Kennedy is still an MP and actually voted for the smoking ban – how could he not know what he was allowed to do under the legislation? He knew what he was doing and he should have been prosecuted. Ignorance of the law is not a valid defence.
He wasn’t given a fixwd penalty because the Police do not enforce/or have the power to enforce the smoking ban. Its up to the local councils and their snooper squads. So as Charles had not broken an arresable offence, it wasn’t a Polce matter.
There’s no such thing as an arrestable offence any more – the police can arrest you for committing any offence, no matter how trivial.
How can he use the excuse he did not know as he voted for it or did he not know what he voted for?
Either case he should resign as an MP as he clearly is unfit for the purpose.
