Labour may not be able to run an economy, but they seem to be doing a good job of running an internet campaign. They have set up a site to coincide with Gordon Brown’s visit, called Ipswich Spy, it also has a Twitter site.

But until that time, don’t be fooled by imitations, here is the real anti-politics net:
