  Keeping to the subject of this thread....
  
  Come off it PaulB. You journalists just love to have your cake and eat it.
  
  As I said if we did not get visits such as this by such as Theresa Villiers then you would be complaining. We get visits and you still complain.
  
  No wonder journalism is held is even lower esteem than politics.
  
  We get a front line speaker down for a fund raiser and you would prefer that after a good meal that she should disappear off to Westminster without seeing and discussing local issues.... Come off it you would be complaining if she did that.
  
  If you want her to take action then she needs to get into Government, without winning an election she cannot act. In the meantime she needs to find out what is happening to prepare for Government.
  
  So if you want to complain about such visits not resulting in any action you should direct these critisisms to the party that has been in power for 11 years.............
  
  Getting back to being non-Party political, the real world is different and much more complex than the weird never never land inhabited by journalists.
  
  So make up your mind, would you prefer leading politicians to lock themselves away in Westminster and be even further out of touch than many think they are? Thats what you are saying.
