Afternoon Quickie #15

Politics Home has a new poll out that shows Clegg gaining on Cameron (23% to 26%) while Brown languishes in a -45% approval rating (or 45% disapproval rating.. it’s complicated).

Again one suspects this can’t last – a good blast of Pro-EU stuff, perhaps an announcement on the Environment and muted response to MP’s expenses means that Cameron is likely to shoot off ahead again.

Most interesting will be how Labour supporters take this sort of news. It’s a point of pride for them that they can guarantee on doing better than the Lib Dems. Silly, Silly Socialists.

All this talk of parties is starting to make me a bit queasy… independence… slipping… integrity… compromised.
