I used to think he was a mockney buffoon - now I think he's a bloody hero. Jamie, you get my vote.

A knighthood at the very bloody least. I really, really admire him.

Another admirer here. Deserves a huge amount of respect. Just hope he is really listened to, rather than a token effort by those that should have known better anyway.

I'm thinking of putting a large amount of money on him getting a knighthood before his 40th.

Yes I agree and how about Richard Branson for Chancellor. Bob Geldolf could be in this new cabinet as well. Might get in Fern Britton for her down to earth female approach. Do you think theres any chance of getting together a new party before May 5?

He is a star

Lets hope the Government actually does bring about change - they are unveiling a 'Childrens Manifesto' tomorrow (Monday) They want Jamie to be an advisor - he has not agreed as yet though

Look forward to reading it - lets hope we are not all disappointed

Thought he gave poor old Jools a hard time about the out-of-season veg though. wouldn't like my dh to do that. Mind you, my dh mightn't know rhubarb from a potato!

I think he's got an MBE already

Good on you Jamie...

And I'm quite sure Blair hasn't promised us he'll improve schoolmeals just because there's an election coming up. I'm sure he really, really means it, and I'm sure he really really cares that we spend 3 times as much feeding prisoners in this country than we do on school meals.

He has refused to get taken on as a Govt. adviser until the Govt agrees to put up money for improving school meals. I think this is the right stance to take.

Not up for him as PM, but agree he is a star and feel I have a lot to thank him for. I'm so pleased he's made the problem so news worthy and bought it to everyones attention, I just hope real changes are made, soon and that 37ish pence per meal and chips with everything and cheap meat all become a thing of the past in our kids schools. Well done Jamie.

He's done a great job so far, just hope he can get the govt. to take it all the way. Not sure I could stand listening to that phoney accent on the TV and radio everyday if he became PM though!
