Jack, You are right, I am biased, I’ll admit I’m one of those who’d like to see the back of our current government.

Unlike me the BBC, however, should be impartial.

You say “It’s not BBC bias it’s fair news rating” and I’d believe that ok if they had at least given it ANY COVERAGE AT ALL but they didn’t. Sky news and the papers all managed to.

I just think there is mounting evidence in recent months that the Beeb are giving Labour an easy ride.

Also the Poll nerd in me was dissappointed after looking forward to seeing ‘graphs’ and analysis etc, admit it you were too!

My local Lib Dem council was named and shamed by the Audit Commission and given a very bad report on Social Services, before it was voted out in 2002.

If the LibDems had had more success in actually running councils rather than just getting protest votes perhaps they would be taken more seriously.

Looked like he’d just come from his sunbed. Statistically, there must have been at least 24% Labour supporters in the audience. Why are they regarded as “stooges”? I suspect the “oracle” has lost his elgins as a result of failing to foresee the the banking collapses.

It’s strange how the Tories are on 52% in the polls, but in terms of the actual situation in parliament they still have only – I think – 196 MPs, which is an incredibly low number. Michael Foot had more MPs in 1983, although the polls are showing Labour is heading for a Michael Foot style result if things don’t change for them.
