I heard Michael Portillo on the television this afternoon reprising his wonderful article in yesterday's Sunday Times in which he thought Cameron was beginning to wobble, and that this could herald the start of a terminal decline. Well, wouldn't we all be upset about that then. Certainly Cameron looks more feeble by the day, and I'm sure deep down inside most Tory MPs are already aware that a shiny face a good gag writer ain't going nowhere but backwards.
Just to emphasise how desperate they now are, this Tory twonk is asking his facebook friends if they can think up a question for him at PMQs. OK, it's one up on cash for questions, but what bloody gimmicks will these twerps come up with next in a bid to get their names in the paper. Whilst Labour get on with running the country, perhaps David Burrowes should ask himself a few questions.... like why he doesn't get a proper job!
I'm sorry, I can't see the problem with this idea. It's better than the
"Will the PM agree with me that Nu Labour's investment in the [insert public service of choice] has led to imprvements for the constituents of [insert name of northern town]?"
Sadly the Jackass (not Jackart, but that's a coincidence) has only had two suggestions on his Facebook page. One from me giving Blair a chance to tease Cameron.

So encouraging people to get more involved in politics, by allowing one lucky person to have their question asked to the PM is bad?
This coming from a Labour party member, whose new leader said today that his new government will listen to the people.
And when you say "get a proper job!" Do you mean that being a politician is not a proper job?
Remind me what do you do again?
No, it is not a proper job if you have to resort to purile gimmicks like this dipstick is doing just to try to get some press coverage. As it was, his question meant he got the customary savaging from Blair and was forced to sit there and take it like the idiot he is.
