The lies, the lies, and the waste - set to continue

By The Basa ⋅ February 8, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

“I think my honesty and my integrity have been vindicated.” says Wendy Alexander on BBC Radio last night: (listen here.) The definition of vindicated is “absolved: freed from any question of guilt; “is absolved from all blame”.
