I didn't see that part of the show as the tape i used ran out, as I just started to watch it back.
I have to say, I only watched bits of that show but it's sure gone down hill from when Iused to watch it most Saturday's about 6/7 years ago. James didn't look impressed at anything when I was watching him, don't blame him either.

To be fair to the Wire, he's the only person in the UK who's called Nick Clegg for exactly what he is: a smarmy car salesman who went into politics.

I've long since given up that there's any truth in this. Marxism takes no account of human nature and presumes we all want the same thing. Any politics can be made to look good on paper.

Clegg for President!

Hmmmm well I'm not sure how good on paper most of the Monster Raving Loony Party or Natural Law Party polices look. In regards to the latter though, I do quite fancy some yogic flying: you've got to love the ability to levitate

Clegg for President of 'Cleggy's Cut and Shut' car dealership maybe!

2 days before the mccarthy mention I tweeted them to say "would you ever consider doing a mccarthy cover album?" I am totally claiming credit for planting the idea for a new mccarthy cover!!!!
