I’m referring, of course, to Michael Howard, leader of the UK Conservative Party. During the press session to introduce the Conservatives’ manifesto, he came out with:
"On May the fifth you can let the sunshine of hope break through the clouds of disappointment we all feel!"
The soundbite is worthy of a particularly oliagious Hallmark card. No wonder many of the assembled hacks of the Press started laughing out loud in an unseemly fashion.
