THE sight of Jo Moore, the assistant to Mr Stephen Byers, attempting to be all sweetness and light on TV after her appalling email asking everyone to "bury" bad news in the aftermaths of the attack in New York was too much to take. Why can't she be made to do the decent thing and resign?

Perhaps the problem is a deep-seated lack of sincerity and humanity in the ranks of New Labour. What kind of person sees more than 5,000 people die live on TV and then talks in such a way. It's time this woman's career was buried.
