Aren't our political leaders funny, now they are falling over themselves to admit to smoking dope at university in a frenzy of better fess up before the media find outness. Imagine the Labour Party Press Office:
Spin Dr One: "Well this will make us look trendy for Guardian readers and make us look cool to the kids"
Head of Spin: "Oh blimey none of the Guardian readers support us anymore you idiot, not since we started to erode civil liberties and turn the country into a paranoid police state, what about the Daily Mail readers who actually got us elected",
Spin Dr Two: "Er better say we didn't enjoy it, it was stupid and we regret it now then"
Head of spin: "Brilliant the redtops will fall for that."
Well if they didn't like it why did they do it? Was it because everyone else was doing it? Good to know the country is in the hands of people who succumb so easily to peer pressure, but then we are talking about a bunch of people who just did whatever Tone asked whatever they used to believe in.
