As seen on TV!

I hope you were able to watch my recent performances on the BBC. Many colleagues have remarked on the way I handled myself so coolly in front of the cameras. Some have been kind enough to say that I deserve to be elevated in the party heirarchy. Naturally I welcome their support. And though it would be wrong of me to openly seek the leader's crown at this stage of our political cycle, it would be equally short-sighted to ignore any future possibilities. I would, in any case, wish to combine my rising political fortune with my important and wholly altruistic consultancy work. To that end I have been doing some homework about ideas that may well enhance our overall performance. You may have read that Suffolk County Council's new Chief Executive has already sent key staff on specialist courses to enhance their behavioural states. I am keen to extend such a policy here in Somerset among my team of Councillors. I have discussed this with our excellent Chief Executive who has unrivalled personal knowledge of sigmoid curves and neuro-linguistic techniques. He has recommended a local company who may be able to assist us.
