The Man on the Clapham Omnibus

When I used to work in advertising, there was an often used phrase bandied about. "What does the man on the Clapham Omnibus think?" In other words, what's the opinion of your average member of the public?

I offer this thought to the leader of whichever political party wins the forthcoming general election. Maybe David or Gordon (that's alphabetical not assumptive) would like to amass a busload of normal people and ask them for their thoughts from time to time. They'd get some forceful suggestions from those who actually know what is going on in Britain today.

I'd better stop there. The idea is quite ridiculous!
