Ken Clarke bashing

Just in case any MPs (for they'll surely be choosing the next Tory leader without 'our' input now) are tempted to believe Clarke's hyperbole, I would just like to remind you what the EU does 'for' us:

Now, I see, the EU is wasting £70m on an advertising campaign to stop people smoking. As the NHS is doing a perfectly reasonable job of providing public health advice on this matter, it seems to be a perfectly wasteful way of spending my money. If anyone really doesn't know that smoking is bad for you, or that there is help available by checking the internet (from a phone box if necessary), then there's really no chance they'll pay any attention to further adverts.

The David Davis for Leader blog, has an excellent post on the problems with Ken Clarke (and there are many). Let's all hope that whoever the leader is, it isn't him!
