Is the Guardian giving me false hope by suggesting that a Blairite majority of sixty isn't enough to push through Blairite policies like the ID cards and house imprisonment anti-terrorist legislation? I'm not student of political science but I do know that often enough it's less like a science and more like Creationism, blind faith and ability to look facts in the face and ignore them.
And surely Shiteyes being made pensions minister is not the triumphant return to the High Table that he was expecting? He'll be on telly less, he'll have to go cap in hand to the Treasury or the Home Office to do anything. Things may not be quite so bad after all...
UPDATE: Aah, the numbers game is explained here.
