Yes sir
Monday, July 23rd, 2007IN his previous life, Pat Carey, minister of state with responsibility for drug strategy, was a teacher and deputy principal.
And there's more than a whiff of his former occupation when he lays out his attitude to a compulsory national register of mobile phones.

Class dismissed.
