Labour Minister in Porky Telling Shocker
Dizzy reckons a Minister might have been telling a porky or two about 0870 numbers. This is exactly the kind of story he excels at - in a kind of runner-up kind of way! Click HERE.
Coming first is easy, deliberately coming second (or third) is an art form. It's a bot like the fact it's easy to come bottom of the Premier League, compared to say coming fourth from bottom (although obviously in that scenario it still means you suck!).
Don't be discouraged, Dizzy. It was a fluke that you lost. Iain's just got a TV station, a newspaper opinion column, Nadine Dorries and some ghastly ties to promote him 24/7.
Next year! (but maybe get less geeky on the IT stuff, too!)
So cutting Iain! ;o)

ReplyDeleteHardly gracious in victory Iain! :)
