is pretty good. There is another moment from the last election when he took on George Galloway which was hilarious.
The little lady with ginger hair in the middle of the clip is called Hazel Blears and is a Blairite and a devotee to unintelligible spin and obfuscation. Also when a junior minister at the Home Office she wanted the police to stop and search all black and Asian men. Woeful form a politician notionally on the left of politics.

during the 2003 invasion. He was very very good at showing Blair, Bush and Powell up - which was why there really was never a majority of people wanting to go to war in Iraq. Just a few deadenders (Conservatives).
He is a great journalist who actually does investigative interviews. I really can't think of an American comparison (sorry - not trying to be mean). Though Helen the Whitehouse Journalist may be close - if they deign to answer a question - or even let her speak.

briefings until they start getting real answers, or maybe ever. They're an anachronism. Perino or whoever should be on the (video)phone to each of them directly for a hosted TV/radio/webcast show. The way they work now, they may as well just go to the WH website for answers, though I guess they get a special preview of what'll be on it the next day. Wooh, that's so worth having.
