Like when I visited Arthritis Care last year. Here I met a group of individuals some professional, some voluntary working for a better way forward for people with arthritis. People who give up their time to help in all sorts of ways. And who can forget Live Aid surely the ultimate in celebrity charity. Westlife have a way to go before they match Sir Bob s heights.
Politicians work pretty much toward unanimity in times of crisis or charity.
It has to be said that it is probably right, although the job of any Opposition must be to check and challenge the government if they don t believe that the Government is doing the best thing for the country. Like the foot and mouth crisis. I think the government is taking pretty much the right line and it wouldn t help to make political gain just for the sake of it. People were worried enough as it is. But sensible questioning is always right.
