if he left it to us to notice he was ad libbing...

if he left it to us to decide it doesn't matter where he went to school...

if he treated us like adults instead of tabloid readers.

He also needs to move away from his main vote catchment area, which would appear to be the younger vote.

I was quite active in politics years ago.Back in the early 80s we really did have a real choice between left and right.Now we just have a choice between media creations!
Now I really have no belief left that honest people are guiding lights in any of the three main parties.Give me Tony Benn,or an Enoch Powell(deceased) any day.While we may not believe in their particular brand of politics,at least they stood up for honesty,and lost influence because of it.
I can remember being in a Bradford pub back in 1990 for the by-election due to Pat Wall's death.Kinnock had kicked out the popularly elected local choice for a scrawny unpopular butto@k taster.The tories meanwhile choose a local Brewery owner whose face was a Scarlet puffy red of over indulgence.
Well after hearing both these guys speak to the pub audience we decided to wait to hear Wild Willy Barrett.Yes he of minor music fame...and he made more sense as the 'monster raving loony party' than the other two combined..and that was read as a tounge in cheek poem!
You can blame Brown for agreeing with just about all the bad things Blair did,afterall he found our money to finance them! The Libs,well dreamworlds don't work.
There should be room for a little honesty,and a genuine difference between party policies,just nothing within my radar to make me bother with an overseas postal vote.

Too much spin, very little substance, but then isn't politics like that now.

Labour will win more convincingly at the next election, I think Gordon Brown could make a fine PM.

Gordon Browns credibilty needs to be voted in by the people to believe in.
Which I think he will test and win.

That was the first thing I thought as soon as he mentioned it.
