Party Conferences

It's party conference "season" at the moment, and frankly I'm fed up with it. It's all a load of bollocks, but the Press seem to lap it up. I, for one, don't care about how the Parties reach their pointless policies, which they'll inevitably default on and change anyway.
Also, I don't understand what all the "Tony Blair's Leaving" shit is all about. Surely, if Party Politics was truly democratic, it wouldn't make any difference who the leader was, as they'd only be implementing the Party's will.
It all stinks of shit, and frankly there's a whole lot more going on in the world that the Press should be telling us about.
