Why so? A straightforward thing like a late reimbursement punishment is frequently ignored by borrowers. This is on account of nobody needs to pay late. Also, this is the place the foundations can play it up further bolstering their good fortune. Botch up a reimbursement once and you might conceivably get your advantage rate expanded. Late expenses can be very considerable as well. It is absolutely not at all like a credit card late charge of £50; the punishment may be much more extreme.

I don't think Fluffy has had time to show his mettle in the contest yet, and Moore definitely wasn't as bad as Carmichael. Danny A only held the office for about five minutes and I don't remember him doing anything especially egregious in that time.<br /><br />By that time we're back at Jim Murphy, and anything he did or didn't do before 2010 is completely overshadowed by his more recent antics, so he's a hard one to place. Before that? Who's Des Browne? I literally barely remember. Same for the others. At least I know who they were, Stalin's Granny and all, but again I struggle to remember what they did specifically in the role of SoS.<br /><br />So maybe it's going to have to be Alistair the liar after all.Rolfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17849975010197698907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-930120922627919768.post-37727585617651070202015-06-14T23:39:03.268+01:002015-06-14T23:39:03.268+01:00I would have to say Carmichael mainly because not ...I would have to say Carmichael mainly because not long before accepting the post he described as a ludicrous and largely useless one and he did bring the office into disrepute with his recent behaviour .bill forsythhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11513042239933358771noreply@blogger.com
