Too early to tell: September 2008
http://tooearlytotell.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Too early to tell. From pop to politics, it's way too early. Tuesday, September 30, 2008. Or ‘This is not America’ - Tory Pickles says that British “cities should continue to be built around the car”. Remember how Blue is the new Green? You know all that Oak Tree Logo-led Tory Renewal? Not very flexible in wind incidentally oaks and subject to being struck by lightning.still:. Only hours after transport secretary Theresa Villiers attempted to bolster the Conservative Party’s green credentials by an...

Too early to tell: October 2008
http://tooearlytotell.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Too early to tell. From pop to politics, it's way too early. Thursday, October 30, 2008. In Praise of Independents - or Why do Manuel and the Mail have it in for a certain maned male? Firstly yes I have felt moved to comment on Russell Brand and second, no, I don't think its a big deal. But I did love the bitchiness of the Independent's front page today 'Manuel's Revenge' - because that in essence is rather what this is all about. Well that and what exactly we treasure as a nation and why. Oh OK that was...

Too early to tell: Standing in the way of control
http://tooearlytotell.blogspot.com/2010/01/standing-in-way-of-control.html
Too early to tell. From pop to politics, it's way too early. Wednesday, January 20, 2010. Standing in the way of control. As Massachusetts' voters prepare to derail healthcare reform in the US, Britain's electorate are preparing to vote themselves back into recession by opting for hardcore class war Toryism 1980s-style. What allows this apparently illogical set of outcomes? The real revelation here is New Labour's view of the poor: take away their booze and they'll vote Tory? Too early to tell.

Too early to tell. From pop to politics, it's way too early. Wednesday, October 20, 2010. This is where we are. In 1997 the British people elected a Labour government, because it wanted a Labour government. A government to invest in a shattered infrastructure and a fragmented society. A government prepared to counter the buffets of the economic cycle by an intelligent growth-oriented investment strategy coupled with a commitment to improving public services. That nice red raspberry got bluer. It took a l...

Too early to tell: Taking Sides Against the Innocent – why is the BBC backing Hamas and the men of war?
http://tooearlytotell.blogspot.com/2009/01/taking-sides-against-innocent-why-is.html
Too early to tell. From pop to politics, it's way too early. Tuesday, January 27, 2009. Taking Sides Against the Innocent – why is the BBC backing Hamas and the men of war? The BBC [and Sky]’s decision to decline to broadcast the Disaster’s Emergency Committee Appeal for Gaza is wrong. It reveals some profoundly muddled thinking by its increasingly irrational, defensive and spineless DG, Mark Thompson. Thompson’s actions over both this and the recent Ross-Brand- Voluptua. So by arguing that the BBC canno...

Too early to tell: April 2008
http://tooearlytotell.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Too early to tell. From pop to politics, it's way too early. Tuesday, April 15, 2008. Gordon is a Moron - And The Guardian has a 'punt'. Michael White starts his blog post analysing the media buzz around Brown's continuing capacity for self-immolation with the potentially hazardous statement 'Here's a punt.' [No, I'm not a betting man, you've. His byline pic, you KNOW what I mean.]. Call me prescient but not having posted since last October, its like nothing's changed at all. A 'Supercasino dropped' soun...

Too early to tell: November 2008
http://tooearlytotell.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Too early to tell. From pop to politics, it's way too early. Wednesday, November 05, 2008. That one' did it. And like most of us, I'm still in the emotional phase - and in a funny way, perhaps just for today, it is an 'us'. Because Obama's universality and the universality of our interest around the globe in his candidacy, has created - if only momentarily - a community of interest. Who knows where this may take us. Who knows how long it will last. Change certainly can happen. Change has happened. He may...

Too early to tell: June 2009
http://tooearlytotell.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Too early to tell. From pop to politics, it's way too early. Monday, June 29, 2009. Your Starter For Ten (to 15 percent cuts) AKA Same Old Tories Too. The temptation is to say 'this is where it starts.' but actually it started ages ago. It started when Gordon's men got an itchy election trigger finger, swiftly followed by a squeaky political bum. There was a need for clear blue water. There was a need for a new dialogue. It was time - Time for politics as usual:. Still, sometimes they help to clarify thi...

Too early to tell. From pop to politics, it's way too early. Saturday, January 31, 2009. New Labour's Final Ecstasy? New Labour's leaders have gone from Rabbits in the Headlights of History, to Duracell Bunnies in the Debt Disco. When New Labour came to power in 1997 Blair and Brown were paralysed by fear of a radicalism they never possessed. As one senior forex expert of my acquantance put it at the time - it makes more sense for me to vote Labour than to keep buying more expensive alarms for my house'.
