Quo Vadis Prime Ministers Questions

Well today was as innane and as meaningless a session as I have ever heard.
Brown ducked, dissembled, ignored to the point where you really wonder why he turned up. I began to feel a sense of nostalgia for when he is away and Harriet Harmann steps up to the plate.

Why does he do it? If a normal person is asked a question we either do not answer at all or attempt to explain and argue our actions or beliefs. He has so little faith in his actions/beliefs that he just avoids answering and seems to think a question ducked is a success when it is really a waste of an opportunnity to state his case on whatever issue is raised.

The tame questions from his own members are an embarassment and again a waste of opportunnity to hold the government to account on behalf of their constituents who after all did put labour MPS there to represent them.

I have no doubt the next lot will be as bad. But perhaps after the equivalent of the political enema that will be the election defeat a real Labour Party will emerge.

I will vote Labour when there is a Labour Party not the Blair/Brown Neu Toryism of PFI, illegal wars, the destruction of civil rights , nuclear weapons and self interest as illustrated by Smith and McNulty and trouts in the trough.
