I still maintain that Ed Milliband would be much higher rated if he was better looking. Or just normal looking (let's face it, Mr Cameron is no stunner).
He looks weird; it's his unfortunate downfall but doesn't that just say it all about modern politics? People want to be flashed a hollywood smile and fed a load of easily-digested soundbites, because they can't be bothered listening to a long speech from a strange face. I hope that changes at some point.

I personally cancelled mine this week (along with my sky sub), I'm just sick of it. The BBC are simply not living up to what they're supposed to deliver... the quality of programming, for the obscene amount of money they receive, is simply shocking. I refuse to be part of it any more. Cobbled together a little media PC hooked up to the TV from bits that I had lying around, set it up with quick links for the various catch up services and a Netflix account, and a load of the kids shows and films on the HD (plus my eldest almost exclusively gets her TV fix from YouTube on the desktop PC, anyway).
More than worth it. Saves me over £30 a month (TV license + Sky - Netflix sub of £6) and the satisfaction of telling them to stuff their TV license fee. Awesome
