Re: More Stench from London
Big deal. It relates to a time when homosexuality was illegal. Of historical interest only.

No. it shines a light on what happened THEN, the world has moved on, homosexuality is legal now, and, perhaps the cover up, if any, was them trying to save the career of a good politician.

Indeed, the "stench" is that Thorpe was investigated and persecuted because he was homosexual.

Re: More Stench from London
This "London" meme from Scottish Nationalists is somewhat moronic and brain-dead. London happens to be the location of the UK parliament and much of the UK government, but so what. Power corrupts, cover ups are a fact of life, presumably Cardiff, Edinburgh, Brussels, Milton Keynes etc. all have their dirty laundry too.

One of life's inexplicable phenomena.
Why is it called commonsense when it is anything but common?
