Come on she wasn't on holiday that was just a cover story but I think there is more to this than meets the eye and it will probably come out sooner or later because it always does.

I would say majority of politicians are in it to see what they can get out of it and this goes for the Tories, Labour, SNP etc no matter what party you are in. They get voted in and get on the gravy train and then they don't give a toss about you unless there is an election coming up and they want your vote. It's just self-interest a lot of the time.

We've all read before where there is construction or development project which the Government are building and then afterwards you find out MPs or party donors had shares in the company which built the thing.

Back when Beeching shut majority of the lines in Britain it was found out afterwards that the then pro-roads Tory minister for transport Ernest Marples had shares in a company which built roads and motorways.
