    No. I'd possibly try and make it even stronger than what it already is.

    In terms of the OP. I've just watched a video of the MP and it is quite hard to make out what he is saying.

    For me it isn't the accent thing really. He doesn't enunciate very well, it's a bit of a monotone drone really. He doesn't need to change his accent, just the way he speaks. Plus he has a slight lisp going on

    I don't mind people in certain situation's it's called for toning it down and pronouncing properly, but some *'s deliberately try to loose there accents..

    Saw it as well. He comes across as a scruff in general. Wouldn't be surprised if he was putting on the accent.

    Not really unless they are the type to really mumble. Maybe because we're used to their accents from TV? The French, well that's a different story..... :wink:
