Don't panic! Lots more cricket to come... 12:51pm on 19 Aug 2008 I adore 5 Live, but I can't stand any of the 5Livers on TMS - the whole tone of the programme is DIFFERENT from 5 Live, and it is it's tone which makes it unique. plus TMS has only ever had people on who know about the game in every intimate detail - Pougache doesn't appear to have been to much cricket, let alone played it.

it wasn't broken and it doesn't need fixing; Selvey back in the fold please!
Cameron Direct 12:14pm on 04 Jun 2008 Did anyone else notice Cameron's hand gestures in the meeting and in his interviews - all carbon copies of the Tony Blair emoting stance. He's been having lessons......
Rallying the troops 11:21am on 14 May 2008 Darling was pretty useless on 'Today' this morning - and I notive Yvette Cooper is now AWOL completely - a lesson she undoubetdly picked up from the PM.

They are responding to events, not determining events - and down that road leads ruin.
A political emergency 6:11pm on 13 May 2008 They still don't exactly look in charge of things do they? Frank Field has duffed them up on 10p tax; Vince Cable has shown them the way on Northern Rock; even George Osbourne has beaten them to the punch, on Inheritance Tax.

Who knows who's going to set the agenda for them next - but you can bet it will be an event that sets things in motion, not a proactive cabinet.

they are hopeless......
Taking up the gauntlet 4:31pm on 12 May 2008 The best thing the Lib dems and the Tories can do now is sit on their hands and watch Labour punch it's own lights out.
Labour in-fighting 12:18pm on 12 May 2008 Its' getting harder and harder to spot when last weeks bad news ends and this weeks bad news begins.....
An almighty mess 4:49pm on 07 May 2008 Truth is, Labour MP's, MSP's and MEP's don't have any leadership - so they've obviously decided to do whatever they think best.

Gordon appears to be in office - but not in power......

He also has one quality that shines above all others. He's stubborn. That's why he waited 10 years for the top job. And that's why he won't resign now.

Hey Labour - it'll have to be regicide becasue he wont be falling on any swords any time soon....
Bad night for Labour 12:44pm on 02 May 2008 What appears to be missing from this debate is the fact that, based on last nights results, the Lib Dems truly will hold the key to the balance of power - which party will make ovetures in our direction? It will be interesting to see if Boris wins the first round of votes in London - but Lib Dems put Ken back on their second preferences.
He got it but will they? 11:42am on 24 Apr 2008 The other problem with all this is that only 20% of tax credits get claimed by the people who are due them - because the system is simply too complicated. It's frankly unscrupulous that Brown and co use credits as a way of saying that they are giving money to the poor - safe in the knowledge that most of it wont get claimed. Its a way of looking good but spending very little.

And Yvette Cooper on Newsnight last night - shocking. Good job for her she's married to the chancellors best friend, or she'd be out on her ear.

Brown out of his depth; Cooper out of her depth; Darling already holed below the water line - the economy's not in very safe hands , is it....
Brown's frustration 5:45pm on 23 Apr 2008 I imagine what really infuriates the Prime Minister is that after 10 years of waiting, he's discovered - much to his horror - that when you're leader you can't just say jump and expect the Cabinet, the Labour party or the electorare to reply'how high'. You have to earn your authority Mr Brown - and so far, you've earned none.....
