A spoonful of Sugar

I have no objection to “Suralan” Sugar as a businessman or even as a television entertainer. I have wayched and enjoyed the Apprentice series. I don’t even object to his appointment to the House of Lords - he wouldn’t be the first millionaire to be so rewarded for making suitable contributions in the right places.
But it does stick in my craw that the Son of the Manse should lecture us endlessly about his values and then appoint a man who is the avowed embodiment of the very opposite of these so-called values.
Once again the moral compass is spinning!
