A bit like Brown and Blair did back in the 90s they sold there principle down the river on the back of electability, which all you local activist agreed with until it started going belly up then you didn't want to know. There was a big C change from all your leaflets at local elections featuring "A message from Tony Blair" to we are only interest in local issues, ya reght
