I would say more about today’s Doha talks, but as they’re going to fail and I’ve already touched on them here I can’t see the point. Instead I shall plant in your minds, this chilly morn, wonderful images of an oiled and wriggling Mandelson rubbing his speedos and beckoning, always beckoning, with a sly look on his face and a twinkle in his eye – “Come to Mandy,” he says, “Don’t be afraid…”. It has haunted my dreams for many a night and, much as with The Ring, the only way to break the curse is pass it on. Probably.
at least he would give good pillow talk telling you how good you are …
Yeah but Chris, then Mandy would make a three hour long speech about great he was, rather akin to anus-clenchingly bad "I have come back to politics" speech.
