Joanna Lumley versus Phil Woolas
Discussion
Actually she didn't seem too pleased with Cameron and Glegg after the commons vote. She was clearly offended that they were just jumping on the band wagon (as they did) for some PR mileage.
Joanna really summed this up when she publicly thanked the "brave labour back benchers" who voted against the bill.
She's a class act and Cameron should watch out because if and when he is PM this issue will still be ongoing.
Must say it was the most bizzare press conference I ever watched. Great stuff.

A joy to watch. Great credit to her for her consumate skill over the last two days. Nice when you see a real actor show up the fake pretenders as the tongue tied oafs they really are. He was utterly clueless and completely out of his depth, lead by the balls and the only funny thing that I can think of it is that his oaf of a boss can't give him a b
king because he came off even worse.
The whole issue is shameful, in the real meaning of the word.
Good on you lass, there are many many people standing and applauding at what you have been trying to do. More of the same Joanna, more of the same.

Anyone who has met any of the current cabinet will know that they would struggle to get a proper job in the real world. They have got where they are by saying yes to their masters. Lumley really did not have to try too hard to make this guy look like an idiot. Because he is.
I couldn't see her playing the same trick on Norman Tebbit, Michael Hesaltine, William Hague, Ken Clarke, Boris Johnson etc.

I was very impressed by her and totally unimpressed by Woolass (even his name is a handicap).
However, the real problem for the government is that they are allowing this whole saga to spin out of their control and are looking more and more like a bunch of incompetents with each incident.

They should just give in and save face, whether its the right decision or the wrong one. They can't afford the bad publicity atm. There are more important issues.
But of course, that being the sensible, logical, Political decision........they go and do the opposite!
Apparently she is a very astute woman and politically experienced in several areas....all topped off with the most perfect example of an English accent.
Her appearance with Woolly showed how woefully inadequate our current crop of Politicos are, things can only get worse for them now as they have no ideas, skills or intelligence to buck the trend......trouble is, I don't think that is limited just to Labour either

A piece of pedantry I know, but Woolas is not a cabinet member. That said, his woeful showing is yet another in a long list of those that show how out of touch our representatives are with reality.I couldn't see her playing the same trick on Norman Tebbit, Michael Hesaltine, William Hague, Ken Clarke, Boris Johnson etc.
