The BBC are suggesting he-who-must-be-stabbed may be questioned by police and that this could finally unseat Teflon Tony.
Oh please please let it be true.
I could do with a reason for a party.

Apparently this is the second arrest. According to the radio some other lower profile fella was arrested a couple of months ago but I can't remember who it was.Comment

The BBC have changed the picture from the happy, smiley one to this. That's better, I like the haunted look, as if Blair has just answered his front door and said "Lord who?"

El Gordo got clean hands - he learnt how to do it in the last 10 years of daylight robbery called taxation...Comment

Once they have finished with Teflon Tony they will start on el gordo. Pity "call me Dim" is more interested in enviromentally friendly hoodies, he could have a field day.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Be funny if they passed that law stopped Scot MP's from voting on English matters...be even funnier if as an unintended consequence it meant Gordo couldnt become PM
Having said that, if I had a spare 5 mil just sitting doing nothing Id buy a peerage. How cool would a Lord title be?

This government is down, and he should be kicking it - vigorously.
What's he doing? Telling us to hug a hoodie. FFS
You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

Jack-in-the-box performances at PMQs didn't do his three predecessors much good at the ballot box. There is nothing like seeing a tory having a pop at your party to reinforce Labour support.
More considered reaction makes his party look, well, more considered.
He sees that Labour doesn't need much help unravelling, they are starting to make a good job of it themselves. Nine years of crap policies, economics, legislation, projects and spin are coming home to roost.
If Cameron tones down his responses, with just the odd tricky question here and there at the right time to keep the pot boiling, no-one can say Labour's troubles are all just Tory mischief-making.
As for hoodies, he can afford to sit back and slowly chip away at the electorate at the moment because there's no election in sight. Hearts and minds.
