If New Labour feels bad about Feelgood, it should hardly be surprising, given the government's obsession with appearances and the play's central London opening just before a general election. Tony Blair may enjoy a thumping majority in opinion polls, but it's still a bad time to have a satire about the government hit the West End. Worse yet that it's playing to full houses. Worst of all that it's so bitingly, tellingly cynical.
