Peter vs Ken
I thought our guy won this encounter on Channel 4 News. Good to see there are still some heavyweight politicians on both sides in politics though:

Personally I didn't think Peter came across very well at all. We all know 0.1% is nothing and to start shouting about it is almost offensive to those with a brain.
Please remember that there are still over 3 million unemployed lots more are worried about their jobs.
The recession is not over or anywhere near it and I'd wish politicians would stop treating us all like fools.
The reason all politicians seem to find this whole thing funny is that they don't have to work to earn a living. Both these characters appeared arrogant and careless.

I thought they were both disappointing. But they are class acts (not in the lip licking way readers of this blog think of class - I mean as in 'very good'). Be a shame when Mandy is no longer a Minister.

Luke - Completely disagree with your conclusion on this but hey at least you acknowledge Ken is not lightweight...
...what happened with your hospital check up by the way dude?
Hope it went well...
