Political blogger looks ahead to Campbell address

By

VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – He has the worst approval ratings of any premier and this week British Columbians will get a televised economic update from Gordon Campbell.  News1130 spoke with a political blogger who says he has to make some changes and fast.

Sean Holman with Public Eye Online says Campbell is looking to reset the clock on his administration.  He adds the premier will likely lay out a new narrative that recaptures the original Liberal agenda so the government doesn’t look like it’s floundering.

Holman explains Campbell has to come up with some new policy that will excite the public, but that’s something he’s not necessarily good at. “I think he writes [it] down on the back of a napkin or [it] comes from whatever book that he’s just read.  It’ll have to come across as being something that he knows the direction of, something he has thought through.”

If Campbell gets a bad leadership review at November’s Liberal Convention in Penticton, look for the premier to possibly step down.
