What certainty could be built on the founds of a politician's word? It is a safer bet to find wisdom in the old joke that you can always tell a politician is lying when you see his or her lips move.

The choice for the party merely lies in which model to opt for - Peter Mandleson's RUC or Chris Patten's RUC. Hardly a life or death choice that will cause party leaders serious hand wringing or deep soul searching into the small hours.
