I have to say that I am really feeling the need for a finger-down-throat icon. DC's speech was sickening. A pretence of being caring; a set of plans for a greater Britain for heaven's sake - does he think we are totally brainless!? If this is what he has in mind - all this caring for the poor and disadvantaged etc. - why the heck has he not applied himself to it in the last 5 years? It is all so cynical. It makes me despair. What a creep. I really do think that is absolutely the most cynical political speech I have ever heard. I hate with a passion these "Churchillian" sound bites that all politicians seem to feel are necessary to communicate with us; the ponderous delivery; the well-placed tear - oh vomit vomit!
And all those back-slappers standing and applauding him - yuk!
Politics is such a dirty game.
