While You Were Sleeping
Unscripted Dave: the morning after
- Are we bovvered that Cameron managed to avoid political suicide in Blackpool yesterday? Oh no, not us, not at all. Couldn't care less actually. Ahem. Right, so Peter Riddell reckons that he did well, but stopped just short of a slam-dunk, the Independent thinks the boy did good, Ros Taylor is impressed at his use of a swear, LabourHome has a mature analysis here, the Political Penguin thought it lacked substance, and the Gord didn't even watch it. Apparently.
- If anyone wants to re-live the magic, the Telegraph has a transcript of Cameron's stylings here.
- Ben Brogan is the first to whisper out loud that Brown might chicken out of an autumn election (hat tip Iain Dale).
- Guido has a run-down of when the commentators are predicting Gord will go for it (if at all).
- Chris Paul on the REAL numbers in those Cameron Facebook groups. All together, folks: "the Tory sums don't add up!"
- It's reassuring to know that the Labour Party is not the only party that contains a distressingly large number of ambitious young berks who think that the proletariat is a type of cheese.
- The Birmingham University Labour Students blog gives an example of an attempt by a local MP trying to get hip with da kidz descending into a whole new nadir of wrongness.
- A plan of the Conservative office in Blackpool gives a hint at where the real power lies (hat tip Tom Watson).
