Another day, another amusing Gordon photo op. I swear, people are starting to do this on purpose. He should count himself lucky Spitting Image is no more. He'd get a harder time than Major. Tip of the hat to The Red Rag.

How not to smear someone
Amateurs.
I'm not going to proclaim Andy Coulson's innocence or guilt like the BBC, The Guardian and Labour's hierarchy, I don't know the full facts and neither do they.
But comparing him to Damien McBride is a bit ridiculous. Has Coulson dleiberately made up smears to discredit political opponents and their wives. No.
Prescott, Clarke, 'Toenails', et al, are spinning this for all it's worth as they try to 'McBride' Coulson.
Nick Robinson has admitted on the Daily Politics that the Guardian has no evidence implicating Coulson. And since this seems to have gone on before and after Coulson's tenure as NOTW editor (also involved reporters on The Sun too (Which he would have no responsibility for) it does beg the question of this is being pinned on him for anything other than political objectives. The police will investigate but if no case is found against Coulson I would suggest suing the Guardian.
By the way, is McBride still not involved with New Labour's inner circle? Those questions at recent PMQ's has had people querying. And do Labour really want to get into a mudslinging match. WHelan, Balls and Brown himself are all viable targets for their underhand political machinations.

A quasi autonomous waste of cash
So Cameron plans to target certain quangos and get rid of them as they're an innefficient and unaccountable waste of taxpayers money. Note that he's not proposing a mass cull but a few carefully selected targets. This is a good thing because it's practical, will mean policy decisions will be made by our elected representatives and most importantly it is achievable. Since it's likely they will form the next government let's hope other policies the Tories launch in the near future are as clear and deliverable.

Another great Gordon Photo-op
He can't help himself can he. Here's Gordon singing old Macdonald with some unfortunate children. Unlike the kids, Brown actually brought his toy animals with him.

PMQ's watch
I think we hit the tipping point last week. Brown is beaten before he's started and Cameron is back on his toes. Clegg is largely middling (Classic libdem territory) and ineffectual.
The cuts vs arguments has been hopelessly lost by team bunker and Dave is walking all over him. So, no spending review, (they want to keep it hidden) 0% extra spending (Chortle!), and the cabinet with a face like stone, apart from the dribbling baboon, Balls.
Scores.
Brown 2/10 One of his worst PMQ's ever (And that's saying something)
Cameron 8/10 Another strong performance. He's got Brown over a barrel and is pressing home the advantage
Clegg 4/10 Anonymous. That's it.
Update
Actually I've changed my mind on the scores. Brown now gets zip, nada, niente, zero! But it's ok, little labour louts, in his eyes that's a positive!
