Someone who is charismatic, intelligent, and loved by the public. The yanks have tried this, but made th e mistake of picking second rate actors to fill the role (Regan and Arnie, of course). We have masses of excellent actors to choose from. If it was up to me I'd cast John Hurt as PM (wasn't his potrayal of Alan Clark fantastic?) backed up by the cream of British script writers. A team of marketeers could invent a new party (Keep Britain Lovely, perhaps?) with middle of the road but interesting policies that everyone could agree with and we'd be on a home run.

It works for me.Jerrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7910188492873665563.post-24758257794658070672006-07-31T02:34:00.000-07:002006-07-31T02:34:00.000-07:00Meddler here.
