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

... Labour delegate said afterwards that the announcement was "great news" that convinced him that Labour is listening. ...

Labour MPs are given crib sheets with approved responses to questions about every announcement, so they're almost literally "singing from the same hymn sheet".

That sounds just like one of those stereotyped responses. It's pathetic.

Not a fan of Brownstuff myself but equally can't stand Cameron either. The tories should have picked Ken Clark instead of the two baldies (Smith and Hague) which lead to what they have now. Don't think I will bother next year.

Knowing that he will not be in power in a few months, he is storing up problemsfor the next government, promising new spending that we cannot afford etc, propping up car sales which a new government will be forced to withdraw and wil be blamed by the unions.......

He makes me so mad

Just watched that Andrew Marr interview

Commentators said that much was re-announcements of the already known.

For example, Gordo said, "no compulsory id cards in the next parliament".
Huge round of applause.
Commentator said, they were never going to be compulsory anyway.

Labour delegate said afterwards that the announcement was "great news" that convinced him that Labour is listening.

IMO his speech will play well for a few weeks until he trips over something else.

any mention of 'hard working families and businesses'?

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.

Speech finished.

"No compulsory ID cards in the next parliament"

[The Lone Gunman]

the "well off"

They get harder to find by the minute.

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