Not Charlie actually but Alistair. He isn't as it happens, but as I watched him the other night on television, something struck me.
Leaving aside his political views aside, and whether or not you believe him to be a pathological liar, could you do what he or any other top politician does.
In the case of the other night, could you provide instant answers to difficult questions with the media spotlight on you.
Could you stand the constant pressure of high office, take big decisions (sometimes daily) which potential could affect the livelihood of millions of people, and deal with the unrelenting media pressure.
