6 of your stories today, and 4 of the 12 blogs, all on, or related to, Damian Green. He's never had it so good, and at a political conference today, he was absent only in body as speakers as diverse as George Galloway, Tony Benn, Nick Clegg and William Hague leapt to his defence. Hell hath no fury like a parliament scorned, and I'd hate to be in Speaker Martin's nice shiny buckles on Wednesday!
what's this about bloggers being asked to turn our pages green and post a ribbon in support of Damien Green.

I'd add Robert Peston's piece on why the Chancellor needs to be explicit. See here.
Political Betting is reporting a ComRes poll which shows the Tory lead down to one percentage point.
I would be inclined to ask WTF, but given Dangerous "questions must be asked" Dave's invertebrate performance, I am not surprised.He has no cojones, and no spine. It's a miracle he's not been mistaken for a whelk.
Imagine how it would be if David Davis hadn't crapped out with his terrible leadership bid speech? What if DD had clinched it. Apparently, DD isn't always Mr Serene. It's at times like this, Mr Angry needs to take a trip to the Dispatch Box and get a bit un-Parliamentary.

This was often the fate of Cameroceras, one of the largest invertebrates the world has seen (ask Ordovicius, it's his period). Despite its spiral shell up to 20 ft long it was, in fact a cephalopod and there was something like a squid installed at the wide end.
Even in a Daley dozen we get transparent Economic 101 failure muddle. Takes some doing, but hey, well done.
