(PRWEB) April 14, 2005 -- With the arrival of Charles Kennedy’s son, all
three party leaders now have families - and holidays - to plan, inspiring family
travel specialists www.takethefamily.com to run its own 'poll' on where they
should head.
Readers are being asked to come up with the funniest, most
bizarre or most appropriate destination to send the party leaders and their
families.
Entries already received include: The Blairs doing a house swap
with Gordon Brown. The Howards taking a trip to Finland to enjoy ‘Something of
the Day’. And the Kennedys spending a week at ‘Left of Center
Parcs.’
Some pollsters ask who will make the best Prime Minister? At
takethefamily.com we simply ask where would you send them on
holiday?
Here are some tongue-in-cheek entries we have received so far –
a few starters for Number 10:
Tony Blair (Labour)
-The Blairs could
nip over to Texas for a ranch-stay with his good friend George W.
-Or do a
house swap (the latest trend in family hols) with next door neighbour Gordon
Brown. House swaps worldwide are known to have gone for just £29.
-WMD
Hunting in Iraq is very pleasant at this time of year.
Michael Howard
(Conservative)
-A few days on the deserted "Asylum Island" – the one some say
his party plans to use to house illegal immigrants.
-Holiday in Finland –
with its long hours of sunshine – to enjoy ‘something of the day’.
-A trip
to Shanghai to watch the World Table Tennis Championships (Michael and Sandra's
favourite sport).
Charles Kennedy (Liberal Democrat)
-A wine tasting
tour of Bordeaux could help him drown any potential sorrows.
-A week in a
"Left of Center Parc" resort.
-He could hire a cottage for a week. Or
(perhaps more realistically after May 5) a couple of months.

Notes to the Editor
What Take the Family would really
recommend:
Tony Blair – four children, aged 5 to 21. Take the Family would
recommend Mark Warner, Powder Byrne, Esprit, or Sunsail because they have great
kids clubs that cater to children of different ages. For many departures until 7
July 2005 Take the Family can arrange a free child place on a Mark Warner
holiday and further discounts. San Lucianu in Corsica would be highly
appropriate for the Blair family.
Michael Howard – two children, one
step-son and two grandchildren. Take the Family would recommend a stay at
Jardins do Lago in Madeira or a visit to Disneyworld, Florida. Both destinations
do a great job of catering to three generations simultaneously. Prices at the
Jardins do Lago from £890 per adult and £280 per child over two years old. These
include 7 nights accommodation and breakfast, flights and transfers.
Charles Kennedy – with a new arrival, he’ll want some pampering close to
home. One of the four Luxury Family Hotels would suit perfectly. At Moonfleet
Manor, for example, the Kennedy's could enjoy 25% off their 3rd night and 50%
off their fourth night through to 19 May 2005.
