Now that America is kicking out the culture of corruption that existed here, we can now sit back and watch the Blair culture of corruption go the same way. It's not just Americans who are sick of it.

Article is here.
 
How generous of DANARHEA to suggest that (the US is finally kicking it's culture of corruption that "existed" here) to now turn his ever vigilant Democratic eye on another Nation's, as yet unproven corruption.

Danarhea, I note with some degree of sadness and dismay that you wrote 'Existed" rather than the more accurate ' Exists', do let us all know when this will apply to those who may be corrupt Democrats, to those who as the result of a sting operation are found to have money stashed in their personal residence, those that are, able to ostensibly serve as HONEST politicians (now there is an oxymoron) in the US Senate in spite of breaking Federal law with regard to using Political donations to pay personal expenses.
Man, this inbred corruption is not merely about the GOP, it is also about Democrats, but naturally as these are now 'In charge' one assumes that they will be found to be 'whiter than white wind driven snow'

Being arrested in either the US or the UK is not proof that those arrested are guilty of any crime, you have also at times stated this, so why, do you now suggest that the opposite be true of those in the UK?
Arresting a person in the UK means they can be questioned 'under caution' so that anything they say can be used in evidence in any future Court case, also anything that they do NOT say, cannot, be subsequently used by them as a defense in any future Court case.
IMHO, the Labour party of the UK is riddled with Cronyism but whether this can be construed as corrupt, I would leave to any future Jury to decide, AFTER THEY have heard the evidence.
On at least one point you are accurate,
We are all sick of the corruption that pervades our world.
