Just read somewhere that Michael Howard's parents were from Transylvania. .
If this is true I think I can now understand why Anne Widdecombe said he '...has something of the night about him'.(You have to say it in a thick Boris Karloff-type accent for it to work).
It's also interesting to note that only the front page seems to be working on Michael's website. Press the appropriate button for his views on for example 'Asylum' or 'Education' and 'page cannot be found' comes up. Perhaps he's having a re-think before his big day.
Personally I think the Tories have made a mistake. Ken Clarke is the man for them. I can see it now...Prime Minister Potato Head. At least he looks like he's from planet earth. He smokes, he drinks, he's on the tubby side, without doubt a man of the people. I think it's the fact that he wears a wide brimmed hat when he's out and about that puts people off. Or. He does have a strange 'chuntering' affliction when he performs in Parliament which can be rather off-putting (or amusing).
Ah well, whatever happens I think things are going to liven up a little. Tony could find himself with a fight on his hands. It might even do him some good who knows? As long as it doesn't get too lively what with his dodgy ticker and everything.
