My views on the Blair government have turned a bit more positive in the last couple of weeks (not difficult given the low points they have reached).
The turning point for me is purely tactical – the introduction of their e-petitions function on the No 10 web site. I think it will make a real difference over time.
Here’s the latest one attracting good numbers – a request for Microsoft to reduce the UK price of their new operating system to something close to what they charge in USA. Seems like a pretty reasonable request to me – now will Tony get behind it?
