. . . means never having to say you're sorry. Thus the Guardian's egregious Polly Toynbee pronounces that "Labour's vain, venal has-beens should bow out and shut up", without a single word of regret for all the years her newspaper spent fellating the Blair-Brown regime, in return for a massive state advertising bribe.
Nor of apology for the fact that her oh-so-principled newspaper, having banked the last of the pay-off, came out for the LibDems just before the general election, "an act of selfish disregard for the Labour party, to whom [it] owes everything".
Oops - sorry; that of course is la Toynbee on Blair. Quite the contrary, you silly woman: the Labour party owed everything to Blair and Co., as without them it could never have won the majorities that permitted it to inject the British body politic with the HIV of over-manning and feather-bedding in the state sector.
