I'll go first and give you a chance, David.
I think the Conservative Party in Britain has only really recognized poverty as an issue since Cameron became leader. Before that they really remained in some sense in denial. It's been an extremely good thing; it's politicized what was previously an apparently technical subject.
I think more than enough noise has been made by the Conservatives in criticizing the Labour government over its failings, so much so that should they get elected in 2009 or 2010, it would not be possible for them to ignore poverty, but I think they will do different things. However, once they get into office--if they get into office--I still think that at quite an early stage they will find that what Labour has done will be largely what the civil service will continue to recommend as being the optimal approach, and it might take them time to do anything radically different.
