Here’s evidence that Liam Fox’s ‘fat and lazy’ golf comment applies more to MPs than businesspeople
Liam Fox’s faux pas about fat and lazy business people on the golf course seems far more suited to MPs, it seems.
This Writer is accumulating stories and photos of MPs on the golf course – none of which play very well for those concerned.
Above we see Dr Fox himself (right), being fat and lazy on a golf course.
I also enjoyed very much the following story about Montgomeryshire MP Glyn Davies – an acquaintance of mine when we were both in previous jobs – written in his own words.
Yes indeed. Dr Fox is already being described as the Gerald Ratner of politics (Mr Ratner nearly killed his own jewellery company stone dead by admitting it was “crap”; now Dr Fox has talked down the value of British business while doing a job that requires him to promote those businesses abroad) and it is an appropriate comparison.
His words, it seems, are more accurately applied to Conservative MPs.

I vaguely remembered Owen Smith enjoying time out with friends:

I’d forgotten that was he was actually fishing but there isn’t much difference is there?
Clearly he needs practice, and I’m not talking about his golf.
On the bright side at least Doctor Fox didn’t blame everything on the unemployed, part-time or low wage workers for once.
Which is nice to see.
Fox is clearly an equal opportunity hater.
Ooh la la!
What the heck! No Adam Werritty?
