Does Sheffield Hallam MP, Clegg, wear clogs or does he prefer Ferragamo, is he one of the peeps?

Agree Camppbell was an enthusiastic smearer. Coulson is doing exactly the same thing though.

Dacre is apparently conflicted: likes Brown (v good mates with him personally), dislikes Cameron quite fiercely, terrified by Clegg. So is basically in a permanent crouch position.

Yes, I agree Atlantis! Also the whole 'Clegg is a foreigner' thing too. Makes them look a bit behind the times and narrow etc - surely Cameron doesn't want people thinking he thinks like that etc? Maybe he does. I don't know.

Was interested in how Brown's worm - the worms are AWFUL aren't they? - swung upwards when he said how proud he was that Britain had become a more tolerant country etc.

" via Andy Coulson, who is smearing sweaty excrement far and wide."

Oh come on PW nobody, but nobody can ever be as bad as Campbell, that man is like a cesspit with mandelson coming a very close second.

Yes claig, I agree about Cameron - I thought he was much better in the last tv debate, but he missed some open goals.

He seems to have been winded by the Clegg effect doesn't he? Like he isn't sure how to be - thought he spoke much more to the Conservative base rather than the centre ground though too? Did you?

I wonder whether it is that they see a hung parliament as inevitable?

"Oh yes I see Atlantis. Still they must be wishing they'd stop don't you think? It backfiring quite badly - telling Mail readers that actually Clegg is a quite posh and little bit conservative??"

I'm sure they do, a lot of mail stories have backfired for the conservatives and then they really laid into the conservatives over the expenses thing, so I think the mail is a little psycho to be honest, it knows it has a mainly conservative readership and yet it still likes having a dig at them.

I think the press smears have quite a lot to do with CPHQ, via Andy Coulson, who is smearing sweaty excrement far and wide. Worried for your job, Andy? Feeling that you've made a dreadful balls-up of everything?

Oh yes I see Atlantis. Still they must be wishing they'd stop don't you think? It backfiring quite badly - telling Mail readers that actually Clegg is a quite posh and little bit conservative??

Agree re the Guardian etc. Must admit, I've never been particularly bothered by where Cameron went to school.

"This REALLY doesn't work does it. Why don't Conservative HQ see that?"

I don't think it's anything to do with CHQ, the mail and their ilk are just catering to their audience, most mail readers will vote Conservative anyway and labour read the mirror and the guardian (which are both doing the same thing to the tories I might add).

I forgot to add that I still like Hague (mr peek too soon ) I think he would make a great PM.

Get out of the way, 100x, claig needs some Rx.

I think it's medication time, children.

This REALLY doesn't work does it. Why don't Conservative HQ see that?

Clegg is like Cameron. Oh? Yes, so, erm, don't vote for him.

Clegg is like Blair. Oh is he? Not some inexperienced nobody then? Well, erm I'm saying this because I don't want you to vote for him. You are?

Jeez. They're making him safe and pushing him into the open arms of people of all sorts of political persuasion. Certainly me, Mrs ideologically adrift centre ground.

It's a really odd tactic.

Stop pw, my poor heart can't take the strain.

"David Davis, who lost out to Cameron, in the Tory leadership contest, is from good working-class stock."

I wanted DD to win the leadership contest, I thought him a 'good' guy, but then he pulled that stupid stunt and got into bed (not literally I hope ) with that woman from liberty (sorry never had any respect for them since the old days when they had PIE in their midst during HH time) Shami Chakrabarti and ruined a promising career.

"worlds apart from the silver-spooned Clegg and Lynton Blair."

I thought I was the only one to see comparrisons between Clegg and Blair.

Give me Cameron any day of the week, he doesn't try to hide his upbringing, although like Clegg, Blair and Brown he is his also a 'career' polititian.

Clegg a northerner ? Oh dear whatever next?

Anyway, don't worry. I'll stop soon, because the Tories have hardly any MPs at all north of Gainsborough. Hang on Sooty, what's that you say? It's because they're the party of affluent southerners? Really?

Oh Claig, listen to yourself. What does your strangulated 'MPs must be working class' argument have to say about Cameron?

I understand that it's not much fun being a Tory at the moment but you're going to have to do better than this.

Ben Wallace, Tory MP for Lancaster and Wyre and PPC for Wyre and Preston North, 'was born in the London Borough of Bromley at Farnborough and educated at Millfield School. He attended the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst, and served in the Scots Guards from 1991-8, serving in Northern Ireland and Central America. After leaving the army, he became a Conservative Member of the Scottish Parliament as a list MSP for North East Scotland.'

Well, This Will Not Stand.

Nigel Evans, Tory MP for the Ribble Valley, is... WELSH! He's only fucking WELSH!

I wonder if Clegg says eeh bah goom when he visits the family chateau in France.

claig, this story is unutterable horseshit and you know it.
