I was wondering

I was just wondering.

The executive and judicial arm of government are meant to be completely separate.

The Phillip Field affair is doing Labour enormous damage in the polls.

We were told that there was nothing for the Police to investigate just after the Ingram whitewash.

The headmistress decides two days ago that enough is enough and suggests Monsieur Field falls on his sword to make all this go away.

Mr Field decides not to resign and the opposition starts getting into overdrive.

Suddenly there is a Police investigation and Mr Field is sent on leave - during which time the Government can still use his vote.

This police investigation will take 'several months' during which time the matter effectively goes away as all queries can be answered with 'It is now subject of police investigation and we must wait (months, remember) for the result of that.'

The headmistress wanted this to go away and effectively it has.

The executive and judicial arm of government are meant to be completely separate.

I was just wondering, that's all.
