Andrew MacKay’s appearance on BBC News at 11:45am this morning was an utter disaster. Perhaps worse than any other MP’s effort to apologise.
While I don’t think this will help Labour, if the Lib Dems continue to come out as relatively clean as they have done so far, they could really benefit.
I know if I were a Lib Dem ad maker I would just play videos of Labour and Tory MPs.
On the whole, I think, as one might expect, the really bad Tory ones look like already very rich people taking the piss; while Labour ones look like actions by people who have taken all that talk of aspiration too seriously.
