Although I don't personally agree with everything in this rant, some parts did make me lol.

Rumours about his mental health and wellbeing have been doing the rounds for a long time. Indeed, Alistair Campbell called him a "psychologically flawed" character over ten years ago. (and wrote a revealing post on his blog this week saying that several members of Blair's Cabinet displayed signs of mental illness. I wonder who that was a reference to?) Gordon is a man needs to be fed "news sandwiches", who throws mobile phones at walls when he's in a mood and apparently destroyed a laser printer. He also swears at switchboard operators in Dowing Street, and no amount of bleating in interviews to The Grauniad about being "hurt" will change those facts.
I think personality is extremely important in politics, especially when you consider that they are in positions of power and influence. Knowing about a person's personality can give an insight into whether they can show good judgement and wisdom. The reason this "cult" has come about is people don't pay attention to what happens in Parliament anymore. So politicians have to get their message into the media via other means. The cult in question is nothing more than a consequence of that. A very welcome consequence, I would argue.
