Conference Quickies

Alex Hilton of LabourHome.com introduced by Michael Crick to Michael Ashcroft, “Can you give me £50,000 for my campaign?” Ashcroft “Send me your business plan.” Later, explaining to a very, very, pretty girl, what he does; “My fund is short the market”.

Spotted: Tim Montgomerie and Nadine Dorries sharing a lap-top.

Bell Pottiinger party: we-left-Labour-for-the-Tories to pour champagne down their throats. Not a shadow cabinet member to be seen…

Guido looking gutted, despite being bearish, decides to take time out from the market. Market collapses.

Maybe if they really wanted to “decontaminate the Labour brand” with business people, they shouldn’t have totally buggered up the economy?

Just a thought.
