A race to the finish line?
I have just finished re-reading the amazing "Don't cry for me sergeant Major" by Jeremy Hands and Tom McGowan - in my opinion it is by far and away the best account of the Falklands War .
One of the lasting visions of the book is the description of the Paras and the Marines competing over who would be the first tocross the finish line at Port Stanley.
Having just put that book down, I read THIS by Guido. It got me thinking about whether the Charities Commission and Yates of the Yard are in a race to see who can take a scalp first? I doubt if they are - but the thought of both the PM and the Chancellor having to fall on their swords at about the same time is one to relish.
