Post by: Uncle Mort on October 03, 2008, 09:57:57 AM: Mandy's not even an elected MP.

And what's a "business ambassador"?

Quote
The BBC has learned that Sir John Bond, the chairman of Vodafone, may become a "business ambassador" for the government.

Still Berek will be pleased that John Hutton is to be the Defence minister. More orders for the Barrow shipyards perhaps?

That's as maybe but Boris out manouvered the bitch and better than that couldn't be arsed to explain it on the Beeb so sent a deputy who simply said "The Mayor had lost confidence in Sir Ian Blair and told him so. Sir Ian chose to resign, the Mayor has not sacked him"

Loverely stuff Boris, again I raise my hat to you sir.
