So exciting. Was at secret meeting with Dave last night when he told us Gordon was going to call the election on Friday, or possibly Monday. Or, possibly not for a while. But probably quite soon. Atmosphere is electric. Policy count 173 and rising. Got a bit squiffy at the north west regional development agency bash but doing best to obey our iron discipline “low alcohol” rule. We were going to go for no alcohol in run up to election but Jed thought that made us seem a bit puritanical. Best if we’re all seen getting a bit drunk, so we can connect with People Out There. Anyway, if you read the small print of our health document I think you’ll find that Mr Lansley is going to fund new drugs that cure both alcoholism and hangovers. Hooray!
