I find it somewhat ironic that Cameron should announce the forcible opening up of public service provision to private sector companies on the day that Southern Cross has folded. The man's timing is impeccable. Were he not being crucified in absentia by the commons and the popular press over his failure to disassociate himself from Murdoch with sufficient alacrity and zeal, I have no doubt that this would be considered a major faux pas.  As it is, he's made so many in the past 14 months that this one barely registers.

*raises an eyebrow*

Have you quie finished sulking into your gin and tonic?

[ch4ncellor.livejournal.com]

Only because it's finished.

Like Cameron?

*sets book down*

Is this going to be another one of those evenings?

[ch4ncellor.livejournal.com]

I have precisely no idea what evenings you're talking about.

*stretches*

In that case, I shall leave you to it.

You have yet to define the evenings you mentioned.

You have certain, characteristic, patterns of behaviour whenever the papers are sufficiently perceptive to paint your party in a realistic light.

You're supposed to drink it, not just look at it.

I'm glad you have ample time to psychoanalyse me. Is that your new hobby?

*sets it to one side*

Perhaps, but not tonight.

George, it is a simple matter or observation- the level of gin in the bottle decreases far more rapidly in times of crisis,

Try to be helpful...

I suppose it makes sense after the observations of Blair's "drinking problem"

As I have said, if you are intent on stewing in gin and tonic water, then I shall leave you to do so. I will be upstairs, should you feel the need for company rather than calvados.

*Takes substantial gulp of drink and hangs head*
