it seems that we are to be given Michael Howard as Leader of Her Majesty's Opposition. I know I'm not alone in finding this extraordinary. Good leader today in the Guardian, which pretty much sums up my thoughts.

For me, he'll always be the most despised member of the Tory party - and that takles some doing - made more memorable by that Paxman interview...

I do have to wonder if the Tory party actually *wants* to self destruct.

Still, from my point of view Michael Howard may be an excellent choice - he'll shake up the conservatives and possibly present credible opposition whilst leaving them completely unelectable.

I dont see myself considering voting Tory in the next decade or so..

I still say we should all vote Lib-Dem: once they get over the intial euphoria, imagine them all crapping themselves in a "now what the feck do we do?" stylee ~:0)
