peterthurgood at Sep 03 2007 12:00:00 AM : What branch of New Labour do you work for Sunny? Your Pet Labour papers might go with this type of rhetoric, but I think you are trying to insult people's intelligence on here by using that old "lurch" phrase. There has been no lurching. It is straight forward Conservative policies which true Conservatives, and the vast majority of the people of the UK, have always believed in. Brown's new spinmeisters have come up with this word "lurch" in the hope that it will scare the public. It might scare the average Mirror reader, but it doesn't scare me, and I am sure it will not scare the people on these boards either.

peterthurgood at Sep 04 2007 12:00:00 AM : The "lurch" as Labour likes to describe it, seems to have just the opposite effect to what Brown's spinmeisters had hoped for, as Cameron and the Conservatives have now bounced up in the polls since "lurching" to the right.
