Nominate Your Most Fanciable Political Journalists
With the Sky News team naming their most fanciable MPs and Danny Finkelstein giving his thoughts too, I thought it was payback time for the political classes. Later today I will be posting a list (yes, it's been some time, after all) of BRITAIN'S TOP TEN (if we can get to ten!) MOST FANCIABLE POLITICAL JOURNALISTS. To help me on my way, you may care to make some nominations, together with your reasons. Keep it clean please. Well, moderately.

Just wanted to comment on Nigel Waterson - I assume he is DNA is now on the database?
James Landale - geeks are sexy.
I nominate Commando Niall Paterson.
rupa huq
Jenny Scott
Randy Mandy Platell..
Katie Couric
Justin Webb
Betsan Powys
Martha Kearney
Cathy Newman (C4 News.. though could she please lose the red riding hood?)
Sarah Smith (C4 News)
Rachel Sylvester (Telegraph.. that byline photo does no justice)
A couple of female lobby hacks did this a few years ago Iain. Trevor Kavanagh came top, and I came 17th. Apparently.
I second the Jenny Scott nomination.
Francine Stock when she presented Newsnight during Gulf War One. Game, Set, Match, Championship and a copy of the Angling Times.
Oh come on its got to be Melissa Kite ,I have no idea what she looks like but on the basis she never gets anything right and yet holdsdown a job she must be bloody gorgeous . This is a FOXIER-MORON theory.
However Naomi Campbell interviewed Hugo Chavez for GQ so I think she counts and clearly ,on that basis , is the sexiest poltical jounallist around by a country mile.
There you have it Naomi Campbell or Melissa Kite.
Reeta Chakrabarti!
Julia Hartley Brewer does it for me
Obviously the double header of Andy Porter and GPW.
Emily Maitlis

Robert Hamilton, C4 political producer
Rupa Huq isn't a political journalist but what the hell she's fit. Also I third the Jenny Scott nomination.
Stephanie Flanders.
What you mean she isn't a political journalist ? Who gives a xxxx ?
Laura Kuenssberg
Yeah, I'd second Reeta Chakrabarti.
Megyn Kelly of Fox News
Gaby Hinsliff at the Obs. Sharp and sexy and given a beat she could win a dance contest standing in a bucket.
I de-nominate GPW too, coz he'll be desperate to get on the list.
Martha Kearney, and a selection from the Victoria's Secret catalogue!!!
Jenny Scott , Laura Kuensberg and Zainab Badawi
Julia Hartley Brewer, Jenny Powell,
Emily Maitlis. Brains with beauty.
Re the Maitlis nomination - the rules say "journalist". Not "professional pouter and c-list celeb who distracts middle-aged politicians from staying on their briefs by thinking about her briefs".
Iain Dale.
Michael Cole.
Jeremy Laxative.
Kaplinsky.
Robin Day.
Cliff Mitchlemore.
Anne Widdecombe.
all come to mind!
So my mate Clegg finished ahead of Dave from PR. :)
Iain Dale ...
no, really !
James Landale all the way....as it were
Christopher Hitchens?
If only there was something like him au naturel..
There's only one Boris Johnson!
Boris for London Mayor.
James Landale
David Grossman (he's funny)
Nick Robinson
Jeremy Paxman (ever since pants-gate, I've had real trouble concentrating on Newsnight)
And Matthew Price, he's not a political journalist as such but he is HOT.
Nick Robinson
Reeta Chakrabarti
Emily Maitlis
Quentin Letts. A man that witty doesn't have to be a picture.
Polly Toynbee
I think Quentin Letts is signed up to play the older Harry Potter in the final film
Our (female) PPC (who has threatened me with castration if I identify her) once called me in quite a breathless state having just spent a few hours chatting with The Spectator's Fraser Nelson.
Allegedly the room was quite hot, and Fraser's suede suit was clinging to every muscle leaving very little to the imagintion.
Therefore, on her behalf, I nominate the suede suited Fraser.
Cathy Newman c4
Simon Heffer.
No, only joking.
Reeta Chakrabarti was on my staircase at Oxford, and I am still surprised when I see her on TV.
Laura Kuenssberg. I just want to roll around with her in the hay and then have an intelligent chat about politics. Bliss. And then, I would ask her to tie me up and pelt me with deep fried pizzas.
The wonderful David Grossman of Newsnight fame.
Gorgeous, funny and brilliant.
Oh God it has to be Andrew Porter - he is HOT!
