Last year Daniel Radcliffe, star of some pervy play about a horse, gave an interview to Attitude magazine in which he declared himself a Lib Dem. You couldn't make it up.
Well, he started off saying he was a Lib Dem, claiming "I don't like the New Labour thing", and "David Cameron is barely distinguishable from Tony Blair". So what makes the Lib Dems different, Radders? Come on - inspire us! "I rather like Nick Clegg", he opines. Well that's me convinced.
He goes on to say, "I think the reason why people don't vote is because the politicians are all so central now, it doesn't seem to matter who you vote for." Quite right, and who better to get us away from that boring middle ground than the Lib Dems?
To be fair to Radders, it's brilliant to see a young role model taking an interest, and he does seem to have put a bit of thought into it - at least he knows the name of the Lib Dem leader, and who else can really say the same? Not me.
