    I see that Margaret has walked out in disgust, accusing Suralun of using her as 'window dressing'.

    The main course referred to by the bogeyman must be Mandelsons' promotion to "first secretary of state" whatever the hell that is.

    Why on earth would he want to be associated with a government in its death throes?

    What position is Susan Boyle going to be offered?

    Sir Alan deserves the promotion : but I am suprised he has accepted it from Gordon Brown. Why does he want to be associated with a loser?

    He still owns Viglen. Which is pretty much a household name now, isn't it?
    Viglen's crap. I still have an old laptop as a doorstop with 2 dead pixels.

    However, I would like Alan Sugar to sit down at a cabinet meeting and say to whoever's left "you're pissing my money up against the wall. Youre fired!".

    Yeah but you can't tell me Nookie Bear wasn't in on it. He was the brains of the outfit.
