Right – I’m off. Just got home from my work’s annual conference yesterday, and I’m turning straight back around.

I will try to blog from conference as much as possible, and if I lose my technical ineptitude, will even try to do some interesting things with video – but we shall see.

First things first, I’m off to watch the new leader be announced, and the party unite behind them.

Conference predictions:

1. The party will mostly unite behind the leader. The Guardian will find one delegate who doesn’t and write it up as a split story.

2. At any fringe on party renewal, someone either on the platform or from the audience will say that we should stop talking to ourselves about ourselves. They will fail to see the irony of doing so at a meeting they have chosen to attend about ourselves.

3. Billy Bragg will be only slightly less popular round the piano than usual.

4. All the best jokes will be at the expense of the Lib Dems, all the real anger will be aimed at the Tories.

5. On at least one occiasion I will get too drunk and rue the day God invented booze.
