Blears humiliates herself, again

Hazel Blears has once again made a fool of herself on this evenings Newsnight.

When asked by Paxman whether people want a general election or not, she said she didn't think they did despite the poll which was part of a story before the interview -

73% of those asked favour an election after the new leader takes over the role.

Her response to whether or not Blair was still an asset was priceless. Not quite the same as the memorable Michael Howard interview (which is here if you want to see it again).

If you missed Blears vs Paxman tonight, it will be repeated online here until tomorrow evening.
