Given the general assumption that the outcome of this election is a foregone conclusion, I'm hoping that this will free up some political minds online for creative pursuits which will hopefully prove more entertaining (ie. I want them to take the p*ss).
The Guardian is already getting in on the act. Fed up with chasing The Stepford PM around the country, their hacks have set up
The Blair watch project inviting anyone who spots him (or any other politician in the wild) to snap a photo with their phone and mail it in to
their Flickr account.
True to form, it took less than 24 hours for their readers to realise that it wasn't just raw, unedited camera phone images that could be mailed in. So
they started to get inventive...
