2010: The year of the political reset button
I have a confession to make: 2009 tested my belief in politics to breaking point. I remember once looking round the House of Commons during another Punch and Judy session of Prime Minister's Questions.

And what were the politicians doing? Yelling and guffawing at each other as if the world outside didn't exist.
