I think you could be right, JK.

I don't think so this time. You just can't behave l;ike that in public office and get away with it. I don't think he has any sympathy coming his way.

do I smell a stitch-up here?

Apparently the news media "share" the feeds. The fact is was a Sky mic was co-incidence. Besides the mic could not make him say things he didn't want to say, could it ... ?

I'm sure the government is already working on that kind of microphone, which is another good reason not to vote for them.

Could a politician's ignorance and rudeness really win him enough sympathy to outweigh the damage he has done over the past 13 years - plunging his nation into debt and stealing the rights and freedoms of his citizens, not to mention his part in the deaths of thousands of civilians in the Middle East? I hope not.
