Tory MP Peter Viggers quits over duck island expense claim | Politics | guardian.co.uk: "Tory MP Sir Peter Viggers said today he felt 'ashamed and humiliated' over his expenses claim for an island to house the ducks in his pond.
He described his decision to include the feature in his taxpayer-funded second home claims as a 'ridiculous and grave error of judgment'.
The ducks had never liked the feature and it was no longer being used, he added."
“Your determination to rely on yourselves”, Lenin finally replied, “is very important. Every man must rely on himself. Yet he should also listen to what informed people have to say. I don't know how radical you are, or how radical I am. I am certainly not radical enough. One can never be radical enough; that is, one must always try to be as radical as reality itself.”
