So its Cameron - what do you think?

[Nightynight]

...and hes only a year older than me, which makes me feel really old.

He was at Oxford at the same time as I was. (I didn't know him)
apparently he was in the Bullingdon - that set was pretty scary, and they had a short way with proles who happened to cross their path.

The only member of his current group, according to the BBC, that I know personally, is Michael Gove. Suffice to say I KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THE MOYNIHAN PLATE.

dont think Ill ever vote for Cameron.

[foxinsocks]

have you written that post in Oxford-code?

[Heathcliffscathy]

fwiw i think this gives them a real chance of getting in next time.

never voted conservative in my life but i sort of like him...he is crap at fielding awkward questions and more often than not drops himself in it....refreshingly human.

also am v v pleased as we desperately desperately need a proper opposition...that's good for everyone

[Nightynight]

yes
link to bbc story here

[fisiltoe]

Nightynight - at least he's not a tab!

[Heathcliffscathy]

love that he admits to doing drugs (for it's honesty and for the fact that most people that went to uni have and what do they think we are...stooopid?) and love that it didn't put of blue rinse brigade

[Nightynight]

imo he only admits drugs cos it looks stupid not to to anyone from our generation. bet they had a long meeting discussing it before he went on air with it in his refreshingly honest way.

[Nightynight]

nope fisil - youve lost me - the only tabs Ive ever heard of are e - not that Ive ever taken one

[fisiltoe]

Oxford speak - we called those who attended the Fenland Poly "tabs".

[fisiltoe]

Oh, and obviously by Fenland Poly I mean Cambridge.

[Nightynight]

lol I know that one!

[SenoraPostrophe]

I think it's great.

it's about time we had a smarmy git for a pm who pretends to be "one of us".

[PruniStuffing]

SP

[noddyholder]

I think its curtains for new labour!

[Glitterygook]

Let's hope so.

[MistleToo]

I think it's marvellous

what gets me currently is how everyone has not stopped whinging about TB - well it ain't 5 minutes since you voted him back in, so you got what you wanted. What's worse is that slime ball Brown is waiting in the wings - now there's a guy with something of the night about him

[wheresmyfroggy]

Ooooops that was meant to be from me

[SenoraPostrophe]

mistletoo - I think you'll find those of us whinging about blair are not the ones who voted for him.

and real opposition my arse. cameron agrees with pretty much everything that I hate about Blair's policies.

[Nightynight]

he he senora
we think alike

[PantomimEDAMe]

He pretends to be the new, caring face of the Tories but in fact, he's just the same. Showed his true colours when he made some very bitchy remarks about the Labour MPs who rebelled on terrorism, calling decent people like Frank Dobson unrecostructed dinosaurs and scoffing at the idea that he'd ever be on the same side as them on an issue.

Hyena in labrador's clothing, IMO.

[Epiffany]

I like him
But I would kiss a baboons arse than vote for a Tory and that's saying something
I just can't can't can't can't.

[ItllBeLonelymumThisChristmas]

I had no idea of his age but looked it up after NN's first comment about him being only a year older than her. OMG, he is younger than me! This is the first time in my life a leader of a political party has been younger than me. Is that a sign I am now officially old?

[Heathcliffscathy]

sp, if the conservatives take a more centrist stance it will force labour left where they should be imo...
