As I don't have a paid account, I can't do polls with ticky boxes.
So, I'll just pose the question and ask you to post your reply:

Michael Portillo is:

A) A charisma-free, oily little git.
B) Charming, elegant, urbane and witty.

Place your votes now!

presumably anyone voting B is a prime candidate for first against the wall when the revolution comes?

So you're in the "A" camp, then?

(A). And one of the highlights of my life was driving 50 miles to vote for Stephen Twigg in 1997, then seeing the expression on the oleaginous git Portillo's face when he lost.

"Oleaginous"

That's exactly the word I used to describe him, too.

that depends on which revolutionary side wins. i'm not keen on facing the death squads for the sake of either defending or persecuting mr portillo

A pragmatic reply, and you may rest assured that your answer will not be held against you during your show trial.

what does that mean then?
does it involve "oily" and "gin" cos i could see how they could be applied to him

You used "Oily", surely.

I score more points for "Oleaginous", mostly through being able to spell it.

I think.

I was speaking about him the other day. I know more than one word for unctuous, you know :p

i'm somehow not convinced, however i can honestly say that if convicted by either side for either answer as to mr portillo's , i would quite happily lay the blame squarely at his door and batter the oily little gits brains out. even if i stil had to face the death squads, at least my heart would be eased with the knowledge that he had gone before me.

No matter how far away he is?

Do I look like someone who knows who politicians are?

Is Portillo the one with the smile that I want to punch?

Almost certainly.

Could this be considered to be a mildly biased judge? :P

Me? Biased? No. So, what's your vote?

Fence, sir. I have a long and proud tradition of abstaining from voting in any given event; this strikes me as one such. :)

We agree on something?

Surely the end times have come.
