A divisive Davis? 2:31pm on 13 Jun 2008 The media have something to blow out of all proportion and twist to whatever they want. That's the only mistake Davis has made.

The simple fact is an opposition politician has stood up for his principles, the party in power will be too afraid to run against him and a tabloid newspaper wants some free publicity.

I heard Gordon Brown today, saying that the Conservatives are divisive. Excuse me, how many Labour rebels were there? Only by doing a deal with the DUP did the 42 day bill get through, not through Labour unity.

Personally, I think the 42 day bill is valid (if not more) but I think Davis should be applauded for bringing this to the public.

It will be interesting to see how this develops, but I can't see anything but Labour looking pathetic for either not running a candiate or putting up lame justification of the terrorism bill.
Laughing off a late life crisis 6:28pm on 12 Jun 2008 Nick, instead of reporting rumours can you outline the possible outcomes of this story?

OK, it's unpredictable but you can hedge your bets and give us chaps off the street something to go on.

You sound like you have a ghost writer from the Labour spin team at the moment.
Unpredictable politics 5:30pm on 12 Jun 2008 When I first heard the news, I immediately thought another by-election, another nail in the coffin for Labour.

I'm wondering how Nick has come to another conclusion? Has the Labour spin got to him?

I just can't see how Labour can come out of this looking good.

Anyway, it's a good time for the Conservatives to bury some bad news as it looks like the media is making a mountain out of a molehill with this non-story.
