It seems appropriate in the wake of certain recent events in European politics to ask a quick meme this week:
Who’s your favourite TV politician? Or your least favourite?
I’m suspecting there’ll be more than a few West Wing responses, but don’t forget the likes of State of Play, Yes Minister, Yes Prime Minister, Party Animals, GBH, A Very British Coup, 1984 et al (depending on how left/right wing you are). If you prefer to hit the movies for Dave, The American President, etc, feel free
As always, leave a comment with your answer or a link to your answer on your own blog.

I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
