Blair must be trying to set a record of sorts, showing the public that he can sleaze as well as anyone. The polls are in and the results show what's been obvious for some time: his government is sleazy:
The YouGov poll for the right-of-centre Daily Telegraph newspaper found that 69 percent of those questioned now view centre-left Labour as "very sleazy and disreputable" compared with 63 percent who thought the same of the Tory government in 1997.Another proud moment for Blair. How can anyone in Labour actually think it's a good thing for him to stick around?
