While You Were Sleeping

Notes on a Scandal

  • The Cowley Street Bedouin asks why leadership hopeful Chris Huhne felt it was his place to report the Gord to the coppers over the dodgy loans affair. Whilst most of us have already answered that one (in an assessment that may or may not contain the words "sanctimonious" and "opportunist" in some sort of order), Angus MacNeil - of previous squealing to the coppers and three-in-a-bed romp fame - pricks the misplaced pomposity with style.
  • Wendy Alexander to be investigated for funding anomalies relating to a cheque for £9.97 or something. Ho hum.
  • Well done to Nelson from spEak You're bRanes who's unearthed a website that looks as if it will provide us all with much hilarity on these dark winter evenings.
  • The site of the battle of Orgreave is going to site a government office.
  • "Oxbridge? Elitist? What a load of tosh, old fellow - why I saw one of those comprehensive school bozos the other day. I say, you wouldn't mind passing the port would you? Good grief! Look at the tits on that - ding dong!"
  • Paul Linford on Blair's legacy of sleaze.
  • Corrections and clarifications: living with Westmonster's family for twenty-eight years has taught her one thing: never be too proud to admit when you're wrong. Peter Kenyon has pulled us up on yesterday's roundup post in which we confidently stated that the Labour Party constitution required the Deputy Leader to hold a Cabinet role. This turns out to be bollocks we are assured, not least because Jon Cruddas ran on a pledge not to sit in Cabinet. That'll learn us to get our info from the Telegraph, eh?

Sadie, it worries me that you seem to find my website something to poke fun at. Could you kindly explain what it is you believe people will find so amusing about it.

I have enough to worry about already thank you very much!
