What a surprise.
The Sunday Telegraph is set to make uncomfortable reading for Mr and Mrs Balls apparently.

"• Phil Woolas, the Home Office Minister, claimed for items of women's clothing, tampons and nappies. The parliamentary rules only allow expenses which are "exclusively" for MPs' own use so it is not clear these items were justified."
The Telegraph seems very keen to make amends for the smeargate mess.
TB would love to know which SNP activist is in charge of his ward in Edinburgh. Four days in a row someone has put one of these leaflets through his door:If they can't even organise leafleting how exactly do they expect to run a country?
Busy busy bear today, but as it's the 1st anniversary of the blog, as promised TB thought he would share some of his favourite stories from the last year:
Exactly a year ago Tory Bear got bored of his revision and decided to set up this site and had a little rant about Scottish politics. Boris had just won London, Timpson was about to take Crewe and The Sun had the tories on 49%.

Dear Gordon Brown,
Yesterday you subjected the nation to another cringe worthy performance in front of the camera. Although you managed to contain your desire to dance, you grinned and ran around your garden. It was all just a bit odd and embarrassing. Here is a performance by a young man that you don't think very much of, but from whom you could learn a lot. He is calm and composed when dealing with people and above all else he is honest. He looks people in the eye and tells them how it really is. Why don't you have a little watch and take some notes:
Please stop going on YouTube, and please stop lying to the nation, and please stop hiding in your bunker. There is no doubt that you went into politics with the best of intentions and it's not too late to save a scrap of dignity. Just go to the country, take the fight to the street. If you genuinely believe that you were doing the best you can to save this great nation, then you would not be frightened. Every chance you get you run away from people being able to vote for you, whether it be your party members, a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty or above all, a General Election.
Today you spat such venom at your opponent across the Dispatch Box. If you really believe that he and the Conservative Party are the frauds and salesman you claim they are, then why not take the fight to the doorstep and call that election.
Lots of Love
Tory Bear
