Pot, kettle, black
Hilarious! School debate champion Jo Swinson has called for the same advertising controls on political parties that everyone else has to be subject to.
In a debate in Westminster Hall she said: "We should also consider the importance of advertising restrictions, which already govern radio and television advertising, keeping up with new and increasingly used forms of media such as billboards."
Is this the same party which just a few weeks ago was printing "bogus endorsement quotes in their "Moray Times", publishing madey up polls as if they are real, and telling voters one thing whilst doing another thing in power.
Surely Jo would not be part of this cynical local campaigning style whilst her party is doing the exact opposite in power in Edinburgh? Would she...?

Oh Jo...what a let down.
