.....given that mine ain't too great, and that at least one of the mods has much more serious probs that way, do you REALLY think I'd deliberately take the piss out of blindness?

Let us pass over Mr Blunkett's physical capacities and merely pause in wonderment at his frankly extreme-right views on many social issues. This man is not a Conservative - even they didn't try some of his tricks.

I saw some female labour backbencher on tv saying she thinks Blunkett has racist views. I expect she was referring to his idea that foreigners should be forced to speak english in thier own homes if they come to live here. Imagine if all the Brits who live in Spain were forced to speak Spanish at home!
