quote: The change from what? I seriously doubt he gave her a tenner. Aye. Ripe for satirising, that. And about as stagy and false as it's possible to be without having Blair and Gordon hug and kiss on camera. Cringeworthy.
Tour de force from our man Dave on Tuesday, though (linky). Obviously a very selective group of clips, and a strange sort of candid camera feeling, with the camera peeping out at him from behind a rack of greeting cards - and with exactly the same idea behind it as the Labour one. But executed much better: Dave doing some of the answering, and not just inviting questions; at least a mention given to local communities (not just Blair and Brown doing a tour of London in a Hackney cab inviting questions about they do in Westminster); and of course, that excellent piece with the skinhead thug.
I'm in two minds about that, actually. There's a school of thought which says that the BNP are best left unmentioned in mass publicity this close to an election, like, say, an election broadcast.
