You must keep your honor! You can't speak for the country you can do little about the national economy or actions of moral weaklings who excuse themselves with the expression, That is politics nor can you be responsible for deception in others.

I was asked to do a test commercial shoot for an Apple product which didn't mean much to me at the time. Some music player that holds all your songs. Sounded cool to me and I never gave up an opportunity to work, especially with the possibility of it turning into a national commercial. Coolest job I did in that time.

The Foreign Office is a very important arm of the British state and I think Britain has a fantastic diplomatic service.

That's not 50 per cent. Two years from now, Britain will have the highest tax rate on earned income of any developed country.
