Tamzin Lightwater's unique take on the week
Wednesday
What fun! We’re having an online charity auction of all the stuff Tory MPs bought on expenses, a sort of Conservative car boot sale! I don’t think I’ve any chance of getting the duck house, way above my price range. But I might bid for the two-seater sofa, complete with leopard-print suedette cushions. All proceeds to a range of good causes including the newly founded ‘Conservatives in Crisis — helping needy MPs to repay their expenses since June 2009’.
Lot of discussion about how Dave should be nice to Gordon at PMQs. We may be the only ones who can save him now and goodness knows it’s in our interest. Trouble is finding something nice to say. Some sort of tribute to his pioneering ideas on scrappage perhaps.
Thursday
Mr Hague rings in from Brussels v stressed. He says a Latvian MEP just punched him in the face. The funny little man — the Latvian, not Mr Hague, obviously — says he was contacted by a Tory official and asked if he and his family would like to take part in a bondage session with other like-minded, free and easy individuals of a transvestite persuasion. Oops! I must get another phrasebook.

Get your masters to sit down and watch "The Great Dictator". The way to deal with all socialists is to ridicule them - which is why Billy Hagues speech yesterday was so devastating.
