Ed does gravitas his way

Sir Ed Davey declared the local elections 'a two-horse race' as he launched the Liberal Democrats’ local election campaign in Oxfordshire...

Illustrating his point, he rode a hobby horse over a series of jumps before smashing through a blue fence, vowing to do the same to the Tories on May 1.

It's possible that "Sir" Ed Davey isn't making cynical fun of gullible Lib Dem voters, but even the Lib Dem faithful don't usually promote their political hobby horses like this - not yet anyway.
