Guido was out on the terrace of the Commons last night quaffing the last of the subsidised wine so missed This Week.  Diane Abbott may well come to regret the reputational damage resulting from her running for leader. It was as some have commented a humdinger, by popular request here is the five minute battering that Brillo gave to her. Something tells Guido her contract won’t be renewed…

Those pesky Don’t Panic kids went along to a BP drinks party…

Think Adam may have lost his patience with Labour figures trying to spin that they didn’t lose the election. Twice yesterday…

Bye, bye Gordon…

It is not just Gove and Whelan bickering over Twitter.  Glamourous Gabby Bertin, Mandelson, Liam Byrne, Fraser Nelson and Matthew D’Ancona spinning away, and the odd technical glitch.

If you missed it yesterday, check out a seemingly tired and emotional Alastair Campbell, swaying as much as spinning here.

Last night fact checking Cathy Newman from Channel 4 News took a look at Antony Calvert’s campaign to castrate Labour in Morley and Outwood. Watch her ask Ed Balls “will people be asking ‘where you up for Balls’ on May 7?”

Particularly amusing when a former Labour voter says, on camera, she hasn’t seen him for 2 years and Balls says “yes you have”.  Calling your voters liars to their face on the doorstep is an interesting canvassing strategy…

The bookies make Calvert and Balls pretty even, have a flutter for a bit of fun. It’ll give you more to cheer about on the night…
