While You Were Sleeping

Fat chance

  • The "obesity epidemic" is leading on the news. Westmonster hasn't seen the full headlines, so as yet it has not been explained to her how this is All Gordon Brown's Fault (but it is, apparently). Presumably the Gord has been spending his spare time infiltrating school cafeterias and frying the salads in lard, whilst force-feeding teenagers cream cakes.
  • Blair is all "not me guv" over the anti-Brown rumblings from former Blairites over the weekend.
  • Ming Campbell... dead man walking... Simon Hughes professes loyalty... execution imminent. You know the lyrics to this one, folks.
  • Jon Worth fixes all the constitutional problems in the UK from the West Lothian Question to PR. Cheers, Jon.
  • Former MP Harry Barnes on why he was never a Bennite.
  • Rumours afoot that the Sun might abandon the rugged charms of the Gord for the young friskiness of the Boy David.
  • The shenanigans in Respect more closely resemble a particularly seedy episode of Dallas than the internal machinations of a serious political party.
