Feeling the Love
Guido was beginning to get a little disappointed at the lack of vitriol against him at his first ever Labour conference visit, though that soon changed as the sun went down and the beer started flowing last night. Popping in to pay his respects to the great and good at last night’s Guardian party, Guido’s face to face encounters with some blog favourites are worth recollecting. It would be fair to say Luciana Berger isn’t a happy reader and doesn’t find jokes about the Ferry ‘cross the Mersey funny. On the other hand MumsNet’s mum-in-chief Justine Thompson confessed she voted for Guido #1 in the Total Politics blog awards. It’s the blog they love to hate…
Hugh Grant added some stardust to the affair, though Guido was a little sad not to get his moment and a chance to chat about the Cayman Islands, hypocrisy and hedge funds with either Polly or Alan Rusbridger. Security on the door was tight, and no sign of Draper. Perhaps after it took twenty minutes to argue his way in to the New Statesman party the night before he decided not to bother even trying…
UPDATE: A co-conspirator points reminds Guido that the funniest moment at the Guardian reception was watching Dr Death (Evan Harris) look daggers at Chris Bryant when he spirited Hugh Grant away from him. Later on Dawn Butler took pictures of Hugh with Emily Thornberry. Hugh has form for lively black girls, so Dawn probably thought she stood a chance. Not with Bryant and Evan there!
Did they fix the sewage?
They are the sewage.
“Hugh Grant added some stardust”
Fairy dust, more like
Is stardust some sort of cocaine?
Only to catch the dribbles from the collective regressive alliance of bruvvers, sistas, cretins & comrades (and Tuscan tax payers)
TT wasn’t there was he?
Morgan Freeman Free To Marry Step-Granddaughter
With his divorce finalized, the actor may head to the altar with a much-younger family member.
Freeman and E’Dina’s affair began when when she was just a teenager
the Oscar-winner has vowed to make a “decent” woman out of his step-granddaughter and father her children!

I though Evan Davies was a Liberal , what is he doing in Lioverpool??
You mean Evan Harris? Maybe he’s looking for a safe seat somewhere, doesn’t matter which party.
Alternatively, it could be that he’s from Liverpool. Unlike most of the local MPs…
I’m always looking for seats – safe or otherwise.
“it took twenty minutes to argue his way in to the New Statesman party”
Why would a sane person do that?
Only a straight kinda guy could ever write that TT
Don’t know,
I spent twenty minutes trying to argue my way out!

and I’d have bought you a pint or two, Mr Fawkes
Congratulations, Guido: you’re now part of the establishment.
Fuck me, that roll call of Socialists reads like the cast of ……………
Shameless ??
Hi !!
Hi !!
Guido
Maybe because young Neo is a more likable bloke?
The human face of Order-Order?
Just sayin……
What was Hugh Grant doing at the conference of the party of the organisers of Rebecca Brooks’ birthday, the godparents of Murdoch’s children, etc etc?
Looking for Dianne Fatbott…………
*chortle*
…..for a blow job?
It’s a fiver and I’ll even take my teeth out.
So did Luciana get hammered again and go all coke and threesomes with Baldwin and Sion??
I think Guido offered her his pork sword, no wonder she’s pissed.
What were they partying about?
Or were they drowning their sorrows? That’s about it. That’ll be why twatson was three sheets to the wind and busking at the door with a guitar.
How’s the itchy front bottom?
What on earth was that halfwit Hugh Grant doing at the Socialist Labour
party conference ? He was just spouting drivel.
You’ve provided your own answer.
I still luvs ya , darlin x
I can do vitriol if you wants .
E x .
Did you talk football with Luciana and ask her how she thought Colin Dalglish was getting on at Liverpool?
Can confirm that they didn’t let him in.
this blog post should be called “Getting Pissed With Luvvies”
Keep up the good word Guido. Someone needs to keep an eye on these idiots. I saw delegate on the tv today who said he wouldn’t take any orders about public spending by rich people which means he would, presumably, from someone who didn’t have any personal income. In policy terms, it makes no difference!
Presume you mean Justine Thompson?
You’re a sloppy incompetent fucker Guido, god help us if you’re the future of political discourse in this country
“Presume you mean Justine Roberts, rather than Justine Thompson”
that was an ironic ipad cut and paste disaster; i’m not bigging myself up as being at the head of some new media movement however.
You have a rare gift. Few commentators have a prose style that truly captures the sheer dullness of a party conference.
mia-ow
What in the name of fuck is Hugh Grant doing endorsing these bastards? He’s a multi-property owning, privately educated, sports car driving wanker is he not?
He’s certainly a wanker!
