I still don't understand why 'conviction poltician' is a good thing.Personally, I don't trust people who won't change their mind regardless of what the evidence is.

The media are stuck in the same rut as well unfortunately.If someone dares to change their mind in changing circumstances, they're U-turning bastards.

So long as they keep their minds open to new evidence, that's great. my other username is a porsche , posting shit pictures so you don't have to,
