Cameron Gimmicks?

The Leader of the Opposition has accused the Prime Minister of a knee jerk reaction to the riots and of suggesting gimmicks instead of proper policy. I expect whoever writes his speeches had done that one some time ago; Miliband does have a habit of saying vaguely relevant things as his view of events. He was just waiting for that vague connection to unleash it.

A modern politician suggesting gimmicks? It is the same as saying dogs breathe. What Cameron says doesn't hugely excite, unless his sudden lurch into the territory of a Conservative becomes real and permanent. But the absolute rubbish being spouted by Labour is almost unbelievable.

Miliband comes from a party that, in power actually thought their gimmicks were policy. They had no regard for the outcome of their actions and broke the law when they felt like it, requiring acquiescence from those who should have acted. The riots are the result of years of left-liberal pandering and Labour carelessness after all.
