I remember the Cecil Parkinson business, but didn’t take much notice at the time because I was knee deep in young children. I thought they must be old films of Edwina Currie, but they weren’t, were they? Amazing. She doesn’t seem to have aged at all.

I think my interest was because I was knee deep in young children! 😂

The way he treated that child was appalling. To be fair as far as I know edwina Currie did not treat a child in that way.

Channel 5 have been showing a series about sex scandals which shocked the nation. The episode on Cecil Parkinson has reminded me what a nasty, conniving creep he really was. We have plenty of MP's in disgrace these days but Cecil was in a class of his own back in the day. Thatcher and her all-male Cabinet eventually brought him back to the fold and gave him a sense that he had been the victim. If you decide to watch it you will have to stomach Edwina Currie voicing her opinion. Glass houses and stones spring to mind...............
