Labour and the Tories must curb their totalitarian flirtations

With the election not yet even officially called and still five weeks
away, this is already the most sterile, empty and intellectually
insulting campaign in memory. It also looks like turning into the
nastiest, with dirty tricks, bugging, smears, and both parties vying in
demagoguery. But even voters dismayed by the mendacity of the Blair
government over Iraq and disgusted by Michael Howard's rabble-rousing
may have failed to detect the full degree to which our politicians are
veering towards totalitarian rhetoric.
