Apparently when Tony Blair found out that Labour had won the General Election that made him PM, he said "****! What do we do now?".
The answer Tony as you were later to deduce was "Feather one's nest"!
How wonderfully naive that he initially didn’t know. The Tories, of course, didn’t have any such doubts. Good thing we avoided “chaos with Miliband”....
Watching rise of the Nazis on BBC last night. Nothing changes.
I'm not suggesting our political leaders are comparable to Adolph, it's just all the intrigue and plotting behind the scenes that reminds you of today. People doing what ever they could and manipulating others to try and gain power. Franz von Papen and Kurt von Schleicher handed power to Hitler because they initially saw him as a pawn to secure their own.

Well worth watching.
It's also worth noting that he was elected democratically, initially, although many would claim the elections were manipulated. Where have I heard that before?
