JC	I don't see many working class heroes on the Labour benches these days. Under Blair (who, like Brown, is very middle class), many young college grads got into the Labour front ranks. He knew that filling the benches with yet more Dennis Skinners was not going to win them any elections. John Prescott was the token working class wally. Most working class people have more intelligence than Brown gives them credit for. They can easily see through his class arguments, no matter how many TV shows he tries to manipulate. Though they might agree that Cameron is a toff, they can see he isn't trying to pretend not to be.
BR	The difference between the brilliant Spitting Image and The One Show is that one was a comedy show after the watershed on Sunday night where the Government of the day was the target ( legitimately ) and not trying to influence an election campaign. The One Show is blatantly electioneering on behalf of New Labour which is frankly ridiculous in prime time daily weekday show. New Labour have lost all their money so cant take on the Tories with advertising. Therefore they are going to use the BBC to trumpet their policies. Their only policy is that "Cameron is a Toff" - but they seem to forget that Blair went to an even more exclusive school and most of the New Labour cabinet equally went to Oxford and Cambridge. This in itself is not an awful thing - though it does match the idea that a small elite control us all !! But voting for TOFF BROWN is no different than TOFF CAMERON - it is basically a TOFFS election as has already been pointed out. In fact the vote is between a SCOTTISH SET OF TOFFS and an ENGLISH SET OF TOFFS. Me - I live in England and so will vote for the English toffs in the same way I will be supporting England in the World Cup until they get knocked out in the second round.
Angel	BR, your subject heading equates to a headline you'd find in the Daily Mail. We all know your a Tory promoter, relax dude. Listen to Chris.
robbiex	You have to remember shows like 'Spitting Image' were incredibly anti-tory and most alternative comedy for that matter. Mrs Thatch and Norman Tebbit were demonised on this show, even to the point where it was suggested Mrs Thatcher had male genitalia and could use urinals.
Chris Retro	I happened to see it (though I'm no fan of The One Show) and it struck me straight away as being ridiculously biased to the point of parody, and I'm no tory (...but then again I'm no nulabour sucky-uppy either). Spitting Image would have had great fun ripping The One Show & Mr Chiles
