Seemingly - and reluctantly
- under the instructions of uber-strategist Peter Mandelson,
Gordon Brown makes a pitch for the support of the middle classes,
signalling his party will not swing to the left to try to overtake
Tories. He portrays Labour as the party of aspiration while the
defining mission of New Labour in the coming decade should be
nothing less than to unleash a wave of social mobility...".
Phew. The People's Party has come along way. The bike-as-tour-bus
refers to the financially straitened circumstances of the Party,
which is...well...broke.
