Paul Daniels's Conference 'speech of his life'

First impressions:

He thinks he's a character in the West Wing.

He can no longer distinguish between fantasy and reality.

He now truly believes that money grows on trees.

If wishes were horses... everyone would have one - FREE! (Vote Labour.)

He presented a ten year plan and expects the electorate to believe he can pay for it all while at the same time reversing the biggest national debt in history in four years.

"And that's magic!'

Just as with Brown's budget speeches, always welcomed with cheers... when the remnants of the fireworks are found on the pavement next morning, cold and faintly smelly, people go all slit-eyed and suck in their breath as they start to curse hard reality all over again.

But oh, look. Here's Adam Boulton with the first cold, smelly ex-fireworks:

"...afford it?... so personal care NOT free after all, then..." (Ed Miliband admits) "... abolish hereditaries... a Lords dominated by your appointees, then..."

This speech was the most undiluted, desperate, disgraceful, unconscionable irresponsibility.

Cammo's people must be salivating, for a thousand reasons.

Brown is a moral and political bankrupt and this speech, a quarter Left-pleasers, a quarter Tory, a quarter lies, a quarter sheer fantasy, will go down in history as the proof it.

Disgraceful.
