It was most satisfying to see one of the media's Champagne Socialists tongue tied and ducking and weaving, whilst trying desperately, to cover up from the body blows that woman rained on him without mercy! She was everything he wasn't. Articulate,straightforward, self-assured, and her short, sharp perfectly timed rabbit-punches, using perfect English, did for Cohen, proving her tongue was mightier than Cohen's bumbling ramblings. Who wants to read his book now? He was totally discredited. His book must be tomorrow's fish and chip wrappings.

It is certainly rather less than the Cameron bounce recorded by the Conservatives in late 2005 and early 2006.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
