Never going to happen although politics would be a better place for less reverence.\n\nClearly he would be too easy for the papers to tear apart and so would be too much of a liability.\n\nOh well back to the grey men.

Dear infobod, it is Huw, Pugh etc, and I should prefer to have Trunptons mayor over this cabinet anyday. Incorruptible, steadfast and looked good in a hat, what more could you want from a politician?

He has, quietly so no-one will notice. We have privatisation of the NHS, tax cuts for the rich (he's only committed to not doing tax cuts 'straight away', which is pretty much meaningless) and euro-scepticism. Same old Tories. He's put the words 'We're nice, now' in front of it', and tragically that's all people seem to hear.

David Cameron is a serious politician and a publicist trying to come to terms with 21st century realities while stuck with a 19th Century mindset. All top show and no substance. He's playing image politics, and not too well, in the way Blair did in 1997. \n\nYou, if you really are a Communist, should know that Blair and Cameron are merely figureheads, and the forces they represent are merely ensuring that, through them, it will be business as usual - a world secure for profit making. \n\nTo answer your questions: the "new" Conservative Party will not be beneficial for Britain - not least because we will still have a "special relationship" with the USA and no independent foreign policy. The NHS will, to the detriment of the UK people, continue to be an ideological battleground. Of course the Conservative Party is manipulating its image to gain votes. Historically it has presented two faces to the British public - in hard times its we all have to tighten our belts for the common good, in a better economic climate its "caring" conservatism and you've never had it so good. \n\nAs I have no intention of voting Conservative they cannot let me down. The memory of the Thatcher era, and the class war she and her cohorts waged against the working class of the UK is still strong. For what was done to the ordinary people of this country then, when they created mass unemployment as an instrument of economic policy, I will never forgive or forget.

Certainly, think Operah would be a great choice. Lose the male ego & let some-one who can communicate with the masses have a go... Then again look what Thatcher did to Britain!

I believe what you call hot topics are real issues.  If I'm not able to agree with a politician on moral issues...then there is no way I am voting for him/her.  War and money are important issues, but I believe ending the murder of innocent humans, and preserving the family are extremely important issues as well.

David Cameron has more or less said that he doesn't disagree with Tony Blair about anything, so traditional Parliamentary debates will be unable to accomplish anything. I could go on about this for ages, but Tony Benn had it exactly when he said of (I think) Tony Blair and William Hague that they disliked each other, but they didn't actually disagree about anything. \n\nThe red-top newspapers divert all discussion into matters of personality and character -- thus the fact that John Prescott was useless as Transport Secretary and useless at the Ministry of Housing is not even mentioned as the reason some MPs want him to resign. They want him to go because he as photographed playing croquet on the lawn at a time when most people (but not, of course, newspaper photographers) are sat at their desks waiting for the clock to strike five. \n\nI expect real debate will become the province of clashes between the minority parties and the traditional ones, and also the province of pressure groups like e.g. the British Road Federation, which has effectively run transport policy in the UK since the days of Ernest Marples in the late 1950s.

If Blair keeps his promise to retire before the next election, then his successor will come from the Labour Party - most people expect Gordon Brown. Do you believe that New Labour is the Party that will solve the pensions crisis and save the NHS? Or the Tories? - which is the only other likely possibility.\n\nI agree that politicians would be more responsive to electors with a suitable proportional representation system, but only if the electors are allowed to choose between individual candidates. The disgusting systems for Europe, Scotland and Wales, with their party lists, go the other way and make politicans LESS accountable. While you are at it, postal voting on request for all undermines the secret ballot and lets in posibilities for pressurising individuals to vote for vested interests.\n\n\nI am not sure that pensions and the NHS will be the biggest issues at the next election. There is a saying "It's the economy, stupid". The pensions crisis is only one of a number of black clouds on the economic horizon, both for the United Kingdom and the Western world generally.

If you mean you would like to come to the UK, i wouldn't bother. Stay over there! We have Blair here, who's more Bush than Bush himself, so you probably wouldn't like it here anyway. Most of us living here don't. But if you'd like to engage in conversation about how crap both sides of the pond are, that'd be just grand! :)

Everyone from here is joining mine anyway. You can join. It doesn't have a name yet, but we are pushing for world peace and the death penalty and the stocks. Apply for a position. You cannot have Prime Minister, Foreign Secretary or Home Office, because they are gone. Oh, and you need to bring about £1 million because we are bankrupt.

10 news and some other press said that there was speculation that he MAY retire in December, This story has been bought up alot in recent years and the Honorable  Prime minister has not retired, even tho some media said that he would. \nThe department of the Prime minister and cabinet in Canberra say that HON John Winston Howard MP has no intention of leaving the nations top job.

Coz the Chancellor in his "green" budget didn't want to antagonise the voting public by so obviously adding to the cost of living.  There might otherwise be a demo against petrol prices and he wouldn't want to be tarred for that - not with his aspiration to be the next PM

PM = Jens Stoltenberg (Labour Party).\nKING = King Harald

Sir Robert Walpole is generally regarded as the first Prime Minister in the modern sense, although technically it is Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, as Walpole only held the title of First Lord of the Treasury.\n\nThe current Prime Minister is Tony Blair (of the Labour Party), who has been in office since May 1997. For the complete list of British Prime Ministers, see List of Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom.\nthere is a link where you can read more on all Prime Ministers of England :http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_Minister_of_the_United_Kingdom

Gordon Brown will not be in number 10 for that long; the farcical way that the handover from Blair to Brown is handled will make it appear to be a coronation, and not a fair contest.\n\nAlthough I think Brown is intellectually up to the job, I reckon he's blown his chances, because his method of getting the top job makes him look untrustworthy.\n\nI know that David Cameron seems lightweight, but he's got a good chance in the next general election, because people just want a change.

who should I discuss it with?
