Belinda Oaten on "The Ordeal"

“Well I think when you go through an experience like that, when it is, literally, splattered all over the tabloids…”

On BBC Radio Four “Women’s hour”

"Some Problems with the Script”

Kennedy’s spokesman’s euphemism has the potential of legend about it. “Too blind drunk to read it” just does not have the same ring. Guido is wary of mocking Kennedy, in fact if you are reading this Charles – lets do lunch – Friday is always good for me. Push the boat out, polish off some of the the good stuff. Sod ‘em. You are just not cut out for a career in after dinner speaking – before dinner speaking maybe…

Guido once gave an after-dinner speech sober – it was my wedding speech. Never again.

Ed Balls stretches credulity by claiming he isn’t ambitious

“I would love to be part of Ed’s Labour government but what I do next for me is not an all-consuming passion. I’m more bothered, in a personal sense, about getting to grade 8 piano by the time I’m 50.”
