First two rules of survival in politics as far as I can see:
1. Don't be afraid to admit sometimes that you've cocked up
2. Be able to laugh at yourself
I held a surgery in Rishton last week and a long-running sore point came up which I thought we'd sorted out in July but it turns out we were badly informed. To try and defend a wrong decision that wasn't really our fault would have been absolute suicide, the residents were far more appreciative of a bit of honesty that things hadn't gone according to plan.
Thanks for the karma!
