Dedicated to Scott – but for the Anglophile in all of us!

If you never saw the late Ian Richardson as the evil PM, Francis Urquhart (F.U.), this is a taste.  PM Cameron should be watching the 20 year old series now for tips.  Here F.U. makes mincemeat of the mawkishly liberal BBC interviewer.

Should you have trouble with the video loading, try letting it run long enough to buffer 30 seconds or so and then restarting the clip at the beginning, behind the buffer.

  3. There was a time when American conservativesthought about solutions like "workfare" instead of "welfare" and national service commitments for youth. Jack Kemp and John McCain come to mind. But I think most self styled conservatives would balk at any government involvement/intrusion today [right, guys?].When "workfare" was the conservative response to welfare I was a conservative. When McCain proposed national service, I was all for it. Yes, I was for F.U.'s approach, in that video.
