Since the Conway story has neutralised (for now) any capital the Tories were hoping to make over Labour’s funding problems, Gordon Brown probably goes into today’s PMQ’s feeling a little more upbeat than he normally does on these occasions. It’ll be interesting to see how it plays out.
Worth highlighting though the curious editorial decisions in The Sun today. A classic ‘nose in the trough’ story about an MP clearly on the make, from a party that have been berating their opponents over money problems for weeks now and what do the Sun lead with? A front page exclusive on Cameron’s law & order plans.
I share most people’s revulsion at the influence the Sun has on our political culture but I wouldn’t be so rash as to deny that influence exists. Does leading with this positive story instead of the damaging one most of the other tabloids and broadsheets led with suggest the Sun is moving at pace towards endorsing Cameron?

I like the Tabloids and especially the Sun. It was on the front page because Brown was trying to steal it , its in the Mirror as a Brown initiative.
