14. Really?
Tony is probably wondering what song to play when he gets re-elected.

I note that there's a feeling on this particular forum that Tony is in some sort of electoral danger. This flies in the face of the reality of the current British political landscape.

The Tories - Noone has forgotten their bad points and noone can remember their good ones. They are led by a dinosaur who looked out of touch ten years ago (Prison works) and is getting further out of touch as time passes.

Lib Dems - Not a force to be reckoned with. Charles Kennedy's day's are numbered and there's no shining light to replace him. Their recent conference seemed to involve pointing a gun at their electabilty and pulling the trigger.

New Labour - King Tony is still in a strong position. Brown is never really going to threaten him. If he was he'd have done it by now. All effective opposition has been quashed. He has lied the country into a war, sold off public assets and yet he's untterly unassailable because the masses couldn't give a flying fuck about anything but Pop Idol and Ben Sherman shirts.
