thanks for posting the dc email lir. this bit made me laugh...

I know how hard every supporter, member and activist worked during this campaign. I know how tough and gruelling it was. I know how tired you all feel now. You'll have blisters from all the pavements you've pounded; paper-cuts from the envelopes you've stuffed; bruised knuckles from the doors you've knocked on.


is that dc's idea of gruelling hard work???? stuffing a few envelopes and knocking some doors. blisters??paper cuts???bruised knuckles????? !!!!!!.:rotfl:

i suppose maybe from cameron's perspective putting leaflets in envelopes gruelling hard work.

i'd like him just to spend one hour in my OH's job.

I think he was being ironic. Just a guess.

Nor did we - presumably for the same reason.
However, we came within 200 votes and 0.5% by votes of ousting the incumbant Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government who had a 20% lead in 2005. Just think what a bit of canvassing might have done.

John Denham. He's always been one of the New Labour ministers who I liked. He resigned before the Iraq War on principle and he seems competent in his job. Are there reasons for him to be unpopular that I don't know about?

Irony. You see, you’re getting the hang of it.

his personal life might not pass the new presidential criteria? although pretty bog standard divorcees don't have that apple pie gloss.
