Back to School in Westminster 38 Degrees Out, Sir Stuart Stung and Larry in Love A busy first week back after a busy summer in Westminister.

We also embarasseed the Shadow Chancellor by catching him red fistedinvading a neighbouring constituency in preperation for the upcoming boundry review. Watch out Hilary Benn... Guido was greatly amused to see verteran Labour MP, and Protector-of-the-Troughers, Sir Stuart Bell, finally get his comeuppance. His local paper reported that 100 phonecalls to his office went unreported and Labour launched an investigation. Sir Stuart, a resident of Paris, denied he did anything wrong and set up a Twitter account to make everything better. Labour let him off with a "stern word". As per usual.... Other favourites this week included the New Statesman proving their worth, the yanks laughing at Marr, Larry and the neighbour's cat, and the mysterious £5,000 bung from a foreign government to a Labour MP...
