# I still don't understand why 'conviction poltician' is a good thing.

# Exactly.
Irrationality and a fervent desire to stick to your guns no matter how shit covered and dangerous they are if anything shows more a lack of the sensibility and reason I'd hope to expect (like it'd ever happen) from someone in such a position of power.

If someone dares to change their mind in changing circumstances, they're U-turning bastards.

# i concur but i'd rather have politicians with convictions who believe something, anything than populist media whore cunts like blair

A nice middle ground, maybe.

# politicians should havev ideals and work hard to realise them but need to be grounded enough to see when they are unrealistic

# So long as they keep their minds open to new evidence, that's great.
