with the UKIP ripping the heart out of Tory/Lib votes and to a certain extent, Labour. I can see labour getting back in by default. You see the average british labour voter is beset with an uncurable disease called apathy. They think that they have to vote labour, not because of any affinity to them, but 'they don't want Thatcher back in - honest! That's a reason they give. Nobody told them she was dead.

This was incredibly well reported in the mainstream media, wasn't it?

BBC Radio Newcastle made brief mention to the event yesterday and I wholeheartedly agree with their quote from Russell Brand...

"The people of this building [the House of Commons] generally speaking do not represent us, they represent their friends in big business. It's time for us to take back our power,"

Not very cleaver remark from this Labour MP

Quote:

Shadow Business Secretary Mr Umunna yesterday said that disconnected voters who are also unable to perform basic IT tasks are some of those who feel marginalised in society - many of whom voted Ukip.

Money is greed, greed is power, power is control, control is corruption.

During a fundraising dinner speech last night, Tony Blair is said to have commented that there is a 'shortage of common sense' right now in the UK ...

At which point the people who paid £5,000 a plate for their dinner applauded in agreement.

Commentators are saying that hiring Andrew Coulson as his spin doctor was the worst mistake of David Cameron's career.

No, the worst mistake of David Cameron's career was David Cameron's career.

Judge rebukes Cameron for comments on Coulson conviction.

Quote:

The judge in the phone hacking trial has rebuked David Cameron for commenting on the conviction of Andy Coulson before the trial ended.

The prime minister has apologised for employing former News of the World editor Coulson as his media chief.

Mr Justice Saunders said his intervention was "unsatisfactory" and set a bad example to the media.
