The Lib Dems
The newsagent at Notting Hill tube station was selling the News of the World at 10:15pm. Surprisingly, Mark Oaten's rent-boy scandal is not the front-page news, instead we have more Sven 'revelations'. Maybe that's the correct news priority. But assuming the Oaten story is true, and it seems for now that it at least has the 'ring of truth', it is pretty good, we have Mellor-style football strips, things that are 'unmentionable' (which presumably is what popbitch was hinting at), etc etc. So Oaten joins a long line of right-wing politicians whose private behaviour apparently failed to match their public image - Parkinson, Mellor, Redwood -- just to name a few.
