Is this the new 'John Major tucks his shirts into his underpants'?
James Forsyth 12:35pm
One of the many things that undermined John Major’s authority was the idea, first put about by Alastair Campbell, that the PM tucked his shirt into his underpants. Now, it looks like the same is being done to Ming Campbell. Here’s Kevin Maguire in this week’s New Statesman: “Does Ming the Merciless wear sock garters? I ask only because a colleague swears he saw a clip hanging out of the bottom of the Edwardian gentleman's trouser leg.”
Let’s see if this story has legs, so to speak.

This is pathetic

October 11th, 2007 11:45pmI once saw Jonathan Ross say that appearing on television took no talent, there was only one thing that you needed to do and that was to stop your shirt riding up by... tucking your shirt into your underpants. Maybe Cambell's rumour was true. And maybe Campbell seniorisimus knows something we postdeluvians don't.
