Oh. Dear. God.

...If anyone's seen anything about The Freedom Association and ID cards or muslim demonstrations on CNN or any other tv stuff, and noted an early twenties bloke from TFA with dark hair, slight Geordie accent, being terribly articulate and witty but horribly right-wing in on the debates?

Understand that I'm hiding my head in shame. All resemblances of this bloke to the cloning operation that is the male side of my family are completely coincidental.

Completely.

....This is what happens when one branch of the family are natural Lib Dem supporters and the others are so right wing they think Thatcher was soft.

(For the record, Mark is actually funny, nice, witty, completely lovely person, it's just his politics that make me want to hide under the blanket of shame)

It wouldn't be so bad if the Magna Carta had been written in MS Word (http://www.computerbytesman.com/privacy/blair.htm).

Actually, I have a dilemma. Ignoring the things I can't really be arsed about (a fair amount doesn't really make much difference to me, or any ruling party would deal with in much the same way), some things they do OK with, and others REALLY get up my nose. I don't like Blair's politics, I really don't like the mechanics of his politics.

I wish I could stand up and say NO. But the overall handling of the economy - the consistency of it - is about as good as anyone could do. More importantly, I'm really rather scared about how the others would do. And that's the most important thing for a government to get right (exceptional circumstances and utterly abhorent policies not withstanding).
