Cliffy, students these days are massively anti-Labour, not so much Tory. On anotehr note over half of the UKs MPs are now new. Hopefully that will bring a bit of fresh air and new attitudes, especially as most MPs are here on an anti-"old farts who are self interested" agenda. The current ...

All the papers should be a bit embarrassed as none of them seemed to have influenced voting very much despite big front page proclamations for their chosen side. I'm hoping today's Sun headline was "It Was The Sun Wot Had Negligable Impact On The Result" Cameron seemed to be doing that ea...

The way things are going he could wind up doing the full Jack Bauer. Based on what Mandleson was saying earlier it looks as if Labour will be getting a new leader even if they succeed as grasping onto power through coalition. Though if Brown will go easily... Mandy quickly putting himself into a an...

His party made a big thing about trying to bring respect back to politics, IIRC. Still... he was entertaining enough on Have I Got News For You. Indeed. Weirdly back when he was Tory leader I wouldn't give William Hague the time of day. Now while I don't entirely agree with all his politics I do re...

Celebrated political figures such as Churchill have also been what we'd consider functioning alcoholics. I don't think it would've held back Charles Kennedy much. Of this lot I don't particularly trust any of them, but the Labour/Conservative candidates considerably less. I liked Kennedy. IMO he di...

Remember don't forget to vote

I know it's fashionable to act all emo about politics, but I genunelly think for the first time in my life we have 3 actually decent choices of Prime Minister even if you don't personally agree with their politics. We have the old Labour hand, old core values but maybe been in power too long. The ne...

And at what point did some Daleks get sucked into the big blue light for Amy not to remember them? In The End of Time people remember the Dalek invasion and that leads into Smith's first episode, which leads pretty much straight into him running into Dalek survivors from that story. Still, now we c...

Randy little minx. Though how the spaceship crashed if the angels never existed is beyond oh look I've gone crosseyed. Big points for the season's arc villain basically being a bit retcon chasing them through space undoing everything dodgy from the RTD years. [EDIT] See? This is why you shouldn't b...

Plan?

Sequel to Moff's greatest hits part 1 was... ...superb. River Song's return was brilliant, I loved her little escape act at the start and the added mystery to her "future" with the the Doctor. The little surprises were great, all the statues ending up being angels, Bob's surprise heel turn...

One other note for the Moff: We get thAmy is Scotish. No need to mention it every week unless Super Gran is going to turn out to be the surprise villain.
Amy is Scottish?

Well i'm once again glad we've got a independant MP who's actually a decent person worth voting for (political influence doesn't matter as none of the 'proper' parties give a toss about Wyre Forest). God knows who i'll vote for when he retires. To a certain extent it doesn't matter, the economic da...

it suited the scene to a tee, made the whole thing seem even more surreal than it already is! I was pleasantly surprised by Nicholas cage he was actually pulling off this whole acting thing he's notoriously rubbish at. Actually Nicholas Cage is a superb actor. He just picks or gets offered terrible...

Will we, though? Take Barack Obama - throughout his election campaign (let's ignore policy for a second) he was nearly always confident, charismatic, seemed to know where he was and believe in what he was saying, could do basic maths, didn't turn into a blubbering girl if someone pointed a TV camer...
