It's a grim time to be an employment minister with unemployment figures at two million. When Tony McNulty went on Newsnight, he appeared moved almost to tears by the plight of Tina Owen, who described how her life had been ruined by losing her job at Woolworth's. The Employment Minister admitted that he could never live on £60.50 a week. At the time he seemed honest and endearing. This man understood these people's pain.
Here's Tina and Tony...
and then there's the Dawn Butler fiasco.
[But then I remember all the sleaze that was around at the time of the John Major Govt.]
