He keeps falling short of what's being asked and all that does is make him look worse and worse as he tries to weasel out of just talking about it. This is, what, the sixth incremental step towards admitting it? I don't know how he managed a successful career in PR if he can't even see this.

He had a job in PR, but I don't know whether it would be right to call it either successful or a career. I'd be interested to find out though. Mostly he's looked good because his opponents and his allies have looked worse, not because he's looked good. Corbyn being... you know, nice, and human, is really showing Cambot for what he is.

I really find it hard to believe that any Tory voters are surprised by all this tax dodging. Isn't this just the behaviour they aspire to? Has anyone asked Osborne if he considers Cameron Senior to be a thief? Also I checked the dedicated Panama Papers thread here and every third post is "but what about America?" loving yanks.

Basically yeah this has been a huge shambles and if he releases incomplete or false info he may well actually have to resign eventually. I think the endless torrent of poo poo boomeranging back onto Tory faces distracted him somewhat because this thing has been uncharacteristically stupid PR-wise.

The "aspirational" right is just pantomiming it up. To the narrative the right wing is still the "Law and order" part of society. This has always been bullshit but it's a very persistent lie.

Which then leads to kneejerk bans, laws about selling grey squirrels, and firing scientific advisers for doing science. There is a lot of press bias in this though, when New Labour tries to legislate social conformity, the gutter press calls them out as nutjob draconian lefties and mocks the bad laws for the entirely wrong reasons, whereas when the Tories do it, it's making the necessary tough choices to keep are families safe.

Replacement Dan Hodges and former Labour MP who lost in Scotland Tom Harris has got the hot scoop in the Telegraph of what people should be angry about. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/04/08/labour-are-once-again-falling-into-the-old-trap-of-sneering-at-w/ quote:Cameron's tax affairs: Labour are once again falling into the old trap of sneering at wealth How much of a oval office does he want to be to try make this point? quote:And as we all know, proper working class people hate unearned wealth. That’s why you never, ever see queues of people at seven o’clock on a Saturday night at the Lotto counter in Asda. Our first serious attempt at "This is bad for Corbyn", I don't think it's going to work.

Tom Harris is an unrepentant shitstain. He once bragged on Twitter about getting a woman with mental health issues evicted from her council house. Meanwhile, Vote Leave have found their newest backer:  The only problem? She said that twenty years ago.
