ReplyDeleteI see from following the link to Lib Dem Voice (not a place I'd normally venture alone after dark) that young Master Clegg has himself four special advisers. On top of that Norman Lamb MP is "chief parliamentary and political adviser" to the DPM and Danny Alexander (himself the proud possessor of two more special advisers), is also Clegg's ministerial side-kick when not charged with pampering the Scots. How much advice does this fellow need?
The Cameron doctrine of one SpAd per department seems well and truly squashed. Another victory for the junior partner it seems.
The intriguing issue of course is what I would call the guns of Singapore question. When the fighting starts, in which direction will this array of advisorial ordnance be pointing?
