Manelson's experience: spin, backstabbing, dodgy mortgages and even dodgier passport applications.
If they're the answer, I hate to think what the questions is!

"Almost two thirds of voters (58%) say Mr Brown should stay on as Labour leader, compared to 36% who want him to go."
I wonder how many of the 58% are Conservatives who feel that Brown staying is a gift to Cameron...

WHat I find astonishing is that New Labour has any support left at all. Suppose it must be the dole scroungers, benfit cheats and other assorted hangers on. Shows how poor our education system has become that there are people stupid enough to let him and his spying, fining, taxing snoughts in trough henchmen carry on. Not that the Tories are much better, look at their Stasi type behaviour at local council level in places such as Chichester, Ealing, Telford and Harlow.
I envy the Americans, at least they have a choice, all we have is an alternative between two authoritarian parties who both act like totalitarian dictators.

Yippee!!
Over 10 long years of NuLab's free ride of our perfectly good economy - having in the process driven the poor dear near enough to death with a bout of unchencked fiscal diarrhea, we might at last soon be getting rid of these impostors.
We need a government that can manage, not pilfer.

After David Cameron's brilliant speech and 1 year of Gordon Brown showing he doesn't have a clue how to be Prime Minister this is not surprising. Gordon Brown has brought back his arch enemy, Peter Mandelson, to spin for him, but the British people aren't fools and can see through the talk of Mandy's "unique experience". His only "unique experience" is of getting back into the cabinet twice after having to resign for a dodgy mortgage.

A small recovery, but still much work to be done. The trouble is, in bringing Mandelson back Brown has hinted that he is going to focus more on presentation and - here comes that horrible word again - spin.
This will help to some extent, and especially when it comes to fighting fires, but it could lead to a loss of trust and an unwillingness to believe the government line on the economy. If that happens, Labour will be staring down the barrel of a bigger defeat.

They're relying on 'experience'!
Brown's experience:tax, spend, borrow, waste & bust.
Mandelson's experience: spin, backstabbing, dodgy mortgages and even dodgier passport applications.
If they're the answer, I hate to think what the questions is!
