"Will the last person to leave Britain please turn out the lights?"

Well, it's finally happened, our erstwhile future Prime Minister will shortly become simply 'our Prime Minister'. Except no-one voted him in, so he's not really 'ours' at all, but when has democracy ever stopped Labour? Answer: never. They see what they want and they take it. You've got to respect that strength of will, that will to power.

Luckily, with its "very low turnout" it looks like democracy didn't even intrude on the deputy leadership contest either. Of course, that's where "the real battle of ideas" was fought: I just didn't realise you won the "battle of ideas" by getting all six of your friends to vote for you. I guess that's how we beat the commies though...
