General Election Countdown

+++Breaking-Sun calls it for Dave+++

Sky is reporting that the Sun is coming out for Dave and the boys, UT is having a celebratory Perroni as all the cards are now falling into place.

Is 8 months in advance of an election a new record?

Gulags for slags and other tales of a lame duck government

Its been a good day for UT today, been enjoying eating again after Yom Kipper and enjoyed a glass of wine and a Guido liveblog.

A lot of policy shit came out today, I felt it was more of a (drag) Queens Speech cum Manifesto (well Eddie Izzard was in the front row).

In my opinion the worst aspect as always was the coverage, Brown moans that he doesn't get a fair shout in the mainstream media but I saw nothing but praise for a piss poor speech, they didn't let Andrew Pearce on at all and Finklestien only got mouthfuls on the beeb.

On a funny note, last year Dolly was at conference, marching around the exhibitors hall into my fiancees stand with Kate in tow had a two minute look
