Nottingham, Derby and the Brian Clough corridor has written 8% of the games software used in the world (leastways, last time I checked).
So it was a new angle to hear that David Cameron likened politics to a game called "Tomb Raider" with Lara Croft, saying, you can't go to level 2 until you've finished level 1.
And yet today, he called for a General Election (albeit, after the summer holidays). Calling for the chance to be PM, before telling the public about your policies, seems to me to skip a level and to sink a homily that was only 7 days old.
It fell to Gordon Brown to explain today just what was planned by the Tories, if they get back in.
For instance, the 18 week ambition for operations, set to be met across the country in December, will be dropped.
In a strong performance at the beginning of the policy forum, Gordon Brown set out the challenges for the future. He demonstrated both a vision for the future and the ability to deliver.
David Cameron meanwhile, hinted in Wednesday's Guardian interview that he'd perhaps reached level 2. Not really high enough, is it.
P.S. What would a Cameron-seeking-power video game be called? Presumably, it would draw upon his Bullingdon Club experiences to provide the violence.
