A blinding start

Newly elected New Labour Deputy Leader Harriet Harman has gone far to prove her political gifts by executing a peerless volte face in her first 24 hours in the job. On the 14th of June, whilst appearing on a Newsnight gathering of the various contenders for the deputyship, she had said that the party should apologise for the Iraq debacle; yesterday she said that she had never said it. Well done Harriet; you will do well.

By the way as she is succeeding John "Two Jags" Prescott in the job she will need a nickname of some sort. Perhaps "Two Faces" might do until we come up with something better.

In case you were wondering it seems that the Daily Mail doesn't think that she is a good choice for the job; at least I think that's what "bleating, hectoring and finger wagging vote loser" means.

Harman was pretty good at doing "sincere". Now it's back to business as usual :)
