I could write his scripts - the words of someone who doesn't care about the people but who knows what to say that chimes with the media picture of what voters want. I think they are wrong, actually, and the majority of Brits wouldn't want a single Afghan in our country now we've "taken back control" but wouldn't dare to admit to it.

I would love to see PR given a go in this country; the argument against it that it doesn't lead to strong leadership can be re-phrased as it allows for more democratically checked and controlled leadership.
