I think Labour has been teetering on the edge of it for ages.

It's just too big a pot of money not to raid it....

New Hospital...mmmm....lottery?...new school.....lottery?....

Define "good causes".

I think that given the length & scale of this piggy bank raid...many
many orgs etc which possibly really are good causes & others which are
luvvie employment funds will start crying foul in a big way.
