There was an interview with Cameron on yesterday's Andrew Marr programme

and when asked what was the very first thing he would do if he got in???


he said, and I quote... "I would set up a War Cabinet"


His true are colours beginning to peek out from behind that unpleasantly shiny smooth exterior... beware....

What he actually meant, and has said before, is that he would set up a war ca inet which would have members of the two other principal parties on it. That is, to my mind, a sensible and rational act.


Sensible to make it a real decision making forum using senior politicians of all types. On a more sly political level it alsoblunts any attacks from opposition parties if they have participated in the decisionmaking.

Well if it'll work for a War cabinet why not the rest of government business?


As it is David Cameron has suggested a coalition government would not work - surely it is not in the interests of the country to have as Chancellor a man who can not even stand up straight in front of a TV camera.

    • Tony Slattery - I used to love his improv on Whose Line Is It Anyway?, not to mention HIGNFY and Just A Minute. https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2025/jan/14/comedian-tony-slattery-dies-aged-65-after-heart-attack
    • I agree re rents, but I don't think you can compare Croydon and Bromley with East Dulwich. Different kettles of fish. They both had, or possibly still have, big what used to be called "shopping centres" rather than just high streets. I think the one in Croydon is being "regenerated" or whatever the word is, isn't it? Also shopping habits are changing. Where once you would go to a physical  shop to buy things, now many things are bought online, where apart from the convenience there is more choice, and you can easily compare prices and see reviews. Re Lidl in Dulwich, I knew a very well off person with a house on the Thames in London plus various other places including a flat in Venice (!), who shopped in Lidl because she said their parmesan was excellent 😀 My grandmother used to be very sniffy about M&S (in the days before it became known by its initials) 😀 I think it would be great to have a Lidl nearer than Camberwell or Peckham, but I can't see it happening, sadly. I'd also like to see a Waitrose, preferably replacing Sainsbury's, but that isn't going to happen either, also sadly.
    • An Aldi or Lidl at the Harvester site would be useful. But, there’s a Lidl close by in Peckham.
