As I've learnt from Tony Blair's whiter than white, I mean what I say and I say what I mean, politicians make assertions now rather than statements of truth. So when Cameron says 'it does what it says on the tin ', he is asserting that to the public. He is making a statement of power, of projecting onto you what he wants you to think. He is not giving a statement of independently verifiable truth. Rather he is projecting his truth onto his audience.how life is changinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08128801825124305934noreply@blogger.com
