Although I hear Mandellson is jostling for the job..

[plotloss]

He has said that it was for 'the good of the government and the labour party' that very big of you Stephen, but you omitted the nation, the people, the public transport system and the motor industry.

W@nker.

Matt.

I'm hearing Mandelsen rumours. Surely not?

[jamesc]

Some looney called Roger Higman from "friends of the earth" being interviewed on the TV. Typical BBC, why don't they bring on Clarkson!
