Don't hold your breath when does an administrative error become a criminal act even if they did make the same mistake several times.

I was being facetious and ever so slightly ironic.

The Conservative Party insists all its election spending was declared in accordance with the law. But last week Prime Minister David Cameron admitted the money had not been declared to the Electoral Commission because of an "administrative error".

Purpose of Tax Havens = To Dodge Tax.

Act of Dodging = Dodgy.

Person doing the Dodging = Dave Cameron.

Ergo, "Dodgy Dave".

So why was Dennis Skinner kicked out of the Commons for stating a plain & simple, demonstrable fact?
