I give you the voters' hero Gillian Duffy! She did what no one else could - showed us the real politician. For that, I salute you Gillian. All the TV debates in the world never came close to what one pensioner managed on her own. Well done that woman!
We thought we knew the man. Then you hear him, blaming his staff, slagging off a life-long Labour voter and in the radio studio saying he only kept the mike on to help out the broadcasters.
Soon as the smelly stuff hit the fan he was back to Rochdale to grovel. Probably along the lines of "Don't blame the Labour Party for my mistakes!" Or that's what he should have said. Don't know if he did. And I really hope Gillian isn't telling.
Seems someone offered her money for her story and she turned them down. Good. Dignity is what is required here and you see precious little of that among scrabbling politicians diving in like shoppers at the sales.
You don't have to agree with Gillian's views but she has the right to state them. Gordon will be squirming tonight and so will I - with glee!
