Perspective

Sorry. got to quickly post this – just noticed a bit of incoming from Adam Boulton’s blog on Sky about the Cameron image (after much Tory lobbying to get it up there) – had a look at the comments and found about half the posters to date would rather talk about why the Black and White Minstrel Show is no longer on the telly!

Trust the British people to do the unexpected and put everything into perspective.

Hahahahahahaha.
