..as the cliché goes. Spend the week deep in a Cumbrian forest with little or no news, politics or blogs to sustain you and anything could happen. Sleeping political giants like the Honourable member for Kirkcaldy & Cowdenbeath could suddenly have found his purpose & resolve. He could've seen the folly of ID cards or robbing poor, childless people to cut income taxes for higher earners, openly challenged Bush on Guantanamo and announced an independent inquiry into Iraq, introduced legislation to reign in city excesses and take more tax from the rich - any number of things oft promised or hoped for by his army of admirers. In short he could've grabbed his administration by the scruff of the neck, started to display that towering intellect and passion for social justice long promised and changed the political landscape.

I've done that before and it's a wonderfully restful experience up there.
