Sugar on the floor / swing to the right May 3, 2008

Compelling entertainment : The Apprentice.

Full of horrible people or at least : people-after-power behaving horribly.

Alan Sugar for his part could not run a football club which employs hundreds of thousands of people – he has proved that.

He could not manage a pop festival which employs tens of thousands of people.

He would not make it as a politician.

However what with Boris Johnson getting being voted into the Mayor of London, this suggests that if Alan Sugar stood for election – people would vote for him.

Social inclusion and community as vote grabs often in pale in appeal when up against a free bag of Sugar, a quick download, or the seeming chance of personal improvement offered like NOW.

New Labour have been caught out – seeing to be treading water – even if there have been many good long-term initiatives going on in the background.

Sugar has his uses – he would be good at doing a bit of organising in the kitchen – getting it to run a bit more efficiently behind the motivational qualities of say a Gordon Ramsay or Jamie Oliver.

So the social inclusion can even find room for Sugar.
