A cross-party appeal to stop this vile "journalism" - from a journalist!

It will be no surprise to any of you that my political sympathies are primarily Lib Dem and have been for quite a bit

Aaargh. What a dreadful article - everytime I think the Daily Fail can't get worse, it does.

If you move merely to the vicinity of Tunbridge Wells, you could live in the village of Brenchley and I would come to visit you there.

I think, when you come down in late May, we should have an expedition to Brenchley and take photos.

[desperance]

Hee. That would be fun. Isn't it a terrible long way, though...?

[la_marquise_de_]

Nah. We can pootle and look at stuff en route.

That's unspeakable. Thank you for highlighting.
(You and I must compare political histories sometime: we're uncannily similar, if you substitute Welsh for Irish.)

I find it depressing that to Jan Moir's thinking, any woman who marries a politician who happens to become leader of their party is honour-bound to be at the beck and call of that husband for every photo opportunity and baby kissing event.

She's a throwback to another age and how I wish that someone would actually throw her back into it.

Also depressing was HIGNFY last week when they were making jokes about Nick Clegg effectively being "whipped" by his wife in that their children have Spanish names. God forbid that it should be a joint decision.

Miriam Gonzalez-Durantez's refusal to be a simpering wifelet was refreshing and that's what's driving the press corps nuts.

Yeah, I saw that too, and thought it was unworthy of a usually excellent show.

People need a good reason to paint watercolours nowadays? Goodness me, I'd better find a good reason for my jewellery-making pretty quick!
