Why?....Tony Blair never did and he won 3 elections.
Politics in this country has nothing to do with values and principles...and certainly not credibility...just look at Clegg.
The next leader will need to take spin and bullshit to a new level..any one of the Millibands should do.

Quoted like a true political officer.

Forget principles, forget values, what is required are the soundbites that appeal to the electorate - once in power they don't give a crap anyway - look at the last Government and the hand that fed it - did it support the workers? - neither in thought, word or deed.

In fact I don't know why we bother there's hardly a hairs breadth between them these days.
