THE LAST WORD

Gail Alexander of the Guardian, that's a totally hilarious piece on what the country's politicians should get for Christmas!

Some of the best:
Patrick Manning: "From the Barbie series, the latest Ken (Valley) doll—wind it up, play with it for five years, then toss it out for a newer plastic model. Batteries included."

Basdeo Panday: "Wardrobe of The Look for 2008 -camo and fatigues to match the beret; Ten-year supply of boots (comes minus plans for dying anytime soon).

Ramesh Lawrence Maharaj: "Linkin Park CD Trying To Bend The Truth; Autographed copy of Comeback Kid by Bill Clinton."

Jack Warner: "A jet (to be back in time for Parliament sittings)."

Donna Cox: "Camilla Parker Bowles’ autobiography, Hats—Not For Everyone."

Jerry Narace: "Shoulder pads to alleviate the stooped-shoulder look and stem further sag arising from heavy-duty portfolios."

And finally, "The 20-plus new PNM MPs: Silence of the Lambs DVDs."
