So far, lots of ambitious spending plans, plus promises to increase taxes for the "well off"

They get harder to find by the minute.

A commentator's comment just now:

"Gordon is never happier than when he's announcing new spending."

State homes for teenage mums
Britain to be the first to discover a cancer cure
blah blah

The one I liked was the proposal for constituents to be able to recall their MPs from Parliament, but that might have just been an NL party thing.

So do you think his speech will have done enough to get him out of jail?
