Saying "someone'' is like saying "a lot of people"
I think it's clear from the numbers : is what the guy was referring to. And that seems to hold true.

So much for " new politics "!
After less than 3 weeks in the job of Chief Secretary to the Treasury, David Laws has been forced to resign because he was claiming expenses ( sound familiar? ) that he was not entitled to claim. Our money!!
But unsurprisingly, rather than condemning, his cabinet and political bandit colleagues are all paying tribute to the guy and bemoaning the loss of a great talent!

On with the show!!

I think the resignation of David Laws shows that the Lib Dems aren't quite the honest bunch that Nick Clegg kept trying to claim they were in the TV debates.

But he resigned...as a matter of principle.........that's the spin!
Oh, and he's a tragic loss to the country as well, don't you know!
