comment |
Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: By destroying Connie's speech, Tooley unwittingly allows Rita to make a passionate and heartfelt speech of her own to the conference that successfully persuades the TUC to make equal pay a core policy. |

The Chains of Commanding: Prime Minister Harold Wilson frequently laments the stressful nature of his job. His song, "Always a Problem", best exemplifies it. Even hearing the word "debt" leaves him clutching his chest in horror. |
