Despite concerns about his recent gloominess both privately among friends and publicly on LBC this morning, Nick Clegg insists he is “much more chirpy” than others have suggested. A worried caller phoned into Call Clegg this morning:

Caller: “I felt so sorry for you yesterday in the House of Commons. I watched it.”

Clegg: “I kept a sphinx-like expressionless demeanour.”

Caller: “If you were on your own, I would vote for you.”

Nick Ferrari: “Why did you feel sorry for Mr Clegg, just out of interest?”

Caller: “Well he looks so sad, he’s tried his hardest and he’s a lovely, lovely person, but…”

Clegg: “Claire I am here! You talk as if I’m not here. Helloooo!”

Ferrari: “It’s like he’s dead! Oh I’m gonna miss him, he was a good man.”

Clegg: “Well thank you for the sympathy Claire, but I’m actually much more chirpy than you imply.”

Glad to hear it…
