Not that I'm complaining, but the Tories are sounding a lot like Labour these days.

I listened to David Cameron being interviewed on the Today podcast and it
could almost have been Tony Blair in '96-7 the way he was distancing
himself from old Tory policies.

Shame about Charles Kennedy, BTW. I predict he'll be drowning his sorrows
in a few weeks.
