The Labour spin on the speech

Fraser Nelson 5:34pm

Hilariously, Labour is briefing that Gordon Brown did not watch Cameron's speech. I suspect they wouldn't be saying that if Dave had bombed. The more people I speak to, the greater the reception seems to be. George Osborne was joking that he should photograph and frame yesterday's papers, the best he'd see in a while. Tomorrow's may be just as good for Cameron.

PS Cameron now sitting a few seats down from me on the train in goat class. Letwin in first.
Correction: Though Letwin told me he was going to First ("It is a business trip") he ended up sitting behind Cameron when the leader took his place in cattle class. Second is the new first, Oliver.

Fraser, was there the usual gathering of students with huge backpacks blocking the carriage doorways? How I miss travelling by standard accommodation.

Goat is now Nick Robinson's acronym for Government Of All the Talents.
