Calculating risk

Graham Smith | 10:02 UK time, Monday, 12 April 2010

Experienced politicians know the value of a well-timed calculated risk. Neil Burden showed a nice touch this morning on Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Radio Cornwall when he forecast a new Director of Children's Services would be in place by the end of May.

Obviously Neil cannot know this for certain - the interview has been conducted but the deal has yet to be finalised - but he calculates that the need to make reassuring noises outweighs the risk of appearing to let things drift.

I'm sure Neil's comments will have raised a few eyebrows at County Hall. Let's hope there is indeed some good news before too long.
