    Sweet Jesus. This is also in the Evening Standard:

    Interesting how the criticism of the opposing political parties for the Tories missing their target isn't for them taking the wrong control measures, and suggesting more effective ones, but for having a target in the first place. Presumably, they'd give up all together.

    And people wonder why the establishment has a reputation for being out of touch.

    I think the attitude of the political establishment is après moi le deluge.
    The only credit i can give to the Conservatives is that I think net immmigration would be even higher (probably by around 20% above current figures) had they not undertaken their limited reforms.
    I note Dave's promise is now an "ambition"
    His words are worthless. They can change in an instant.
    Dave has ambitions of outperforming John Major in 1992.

    I am biased of course, but I really mean it when I say Dave is an empty PR "suit".

    Mr. Royale, it was an intensely stupid promise to make.

    Incidentally, I have the ambition of out-selling George RR Martin and having my books developed into a set of TV series, videogames and films.

    I had no problem with the promise, and, indeed, voted for it; just like millions of other people.

    I felt it was achievable and expected it to be met.

    I think you're right. The thing is: I think Ed Miliband really does know what he wants to do and that, for me, makes him more dangerous.

    Major might be a Tory, but he is/was a decent man.

    We can, and probably will, argue about dangerous, but I am not convinced, as many on here are, that Ed can be written off so soon.

    F1: new Force India should debut tomorrow. Just three days of testing, but if it goes smoothly it'll be interesting to see if they can get more mileage than McLaren.

    Which seat is Edinburgh Zoo in? It would be poetic justice if they (Pandas) had a Tory MP.

    As a resident of Kent, I personally believe it is highly unlikely that Farage will not win his seat. Seemingly every second person around here is tempted by UKIP. I was hoping that the Conservatives' early action on immigration would give enough good news in this area to tempt back UKIP waverers. Unfortunately, today's numbers from the Office for National Statistics have shown we have not done enough. Nigel's personal name recognition will likely carry him over the line.
