Hearing that the former Times hack’s role will apparently be “strategy” rather than frontline comms. Guido will believe that when he sees it, though perhaps they are waiting for the dust to settle from articles by Baldwin such as “Labour’s biggest donor refuses cash over fears about Miliband“. Certainly an interesting choice that has got people scratching their heads, and their noses. What’s the betting his close friendship with Alastair Campbell had something to do with him taking the job?

You would have thought Labour would have learnt from their past, and their attacks on Coulson, not to choose another spinner who is at risk of becoming the story…
