Yesterday on my doorstep dropped a request for a reference for a friend of mine to become a Scout Leader. I am very glad that my friend has given up some of his time to help the community at a time when third sector organisations are increasing finding it hard to get volunteers.
It was President Obama who showed how voluntary work can benefit communities by his taking part in a community painting project.
As a board member of a Charity I understand how valuable the work of the 3rd sector can be also how at time voluntary work can be stressful but sometimes fun.
It was with interest I read of the Tory MP recent run in with the Police when he claimed in the House of Commons that his Parliamentary Office had been search by the police without a warrent the truth is slightly less murky a House of Commons based officer had made an appoint to come to the MP's office to check for a letter that had been sent to the Secretary of State for Education Ed Balls containing white powder.
The Tories attempt at spin looks at best like dishonest opportunism then agian we all know the Tories can not be trusted.
