I think Labour MP Sion Simon's pisstake of the webcameron broadcast is quite funny. What is all the fuss about?

If Cameron is going to go on the net and 'use new technology to get in touch with people' then he has to expect the opposition to respond in kind.
And it is a searing critique of the whole Dave C style. He does talk about his kids all the time. He does try to mask his Old Etonian roots by pretending to be just like one of the people.
It also shows that perhaps some in the Labour party are worried that the public will warm to Cameron. He may be a toff, but he comes across as a lot more human than many Labour MPs.
Among them Sion Simon. You ever actually heard him talk? He comes across like an alien.
Dave's problem is not his own image. It is the rest of his party. I watched an interminable debate about climate change this afternoon in the House of Commons. And while the Tory front bench may well be new green Tories, many of the dinosaurs sitting behind them are still clearly more interested in business interests.
Let us hope the A-list will sweep all those old fogies out of the Commons.
