While You Were Sleeping
Lunatic asylum of all the talents
- "Handy Andy" and his alleged antics lead to questions asked over his future at ConservativeHome. Since Howard Flight had the whip removed and was deselected for saying, "tax cuts make me HOT, baby!" it's hard to see how the whips' office can ignore this one.
- Hair-shirts and self-flagellation a-go-go over on the Today programme this morning, which is leading on how a cat was named incorrectly on Blue Peter (every child's most hated "edukayshunal" programme), although some think that the issue is a metaphor for the modern Labour Party.
- Plans are afoot to extend the People's Republic of Gordonia out to the shires (except the ones containing Alan Milburn and Charles Clarke, obviously). Please welcome...Town Halls of All the Talents! It gets more like a Not the Nine O'Clock News sketch every day, don't it?
- Mugabe gets all "am I bovvered?" on Gord's ass after the latter's refusal to attend an Africa summit if the Zimbabwe leader was in attendance.
- And Will Hutton becomes the latest hack to offer his I-have-the-power-of-foresight -style advice to Merv, after the event. Cheers, Will.
