Nothing like clearing out the old and in with the new once you\’ve realised that the old system wasn\’t quite up to scratch, eh?
And he has the balls (just too easy) to tell the new government how to do things and where they are going wrong. 13 years of public trust to leave the heritage he is now trying to deny???

Ed Balls really divides opinion;
