Hello all,
Piers Morgan, former Editor of the Daily Mirror and News of the World, and now Executive Editor of First News, a weekly newspaper aimed at 9-12 year olds, is coming to Mumsnet for an online chat on Tuesday 10th October at 12.30pm. So make sure you make a note in your diary to log on and post a question. If you can't make the actual event do post your question in advance here. Whilst he can't promise to answer every one he'll do what he can (and we reckon he should be able to type quite fast being a journo and all that).
Best,
MNHQ

"Sorry for taking so long, I've been working from the bottom up (my preferred option with mums). "

Waits for the onslaught

PiersMorgan · 10/10/2006 13:38

Dear Greensleeves,

You asked: 'In the light of your pithy appraisal of the Prime Minister's wife, what would be your response to someone who called you a muck-racking, gold-digging, morally destitute sleazy little guttersnipe?'

My answer: I'd agree with every word. I like being all those things.

Um, we don't allow personal attacks on Mumsnet remember, and that extends to our guests too, please.

Dear Piers

I'm laughing but I'm also confused

what does "... I've been working from the bottom up (my preferred option with mums)." actually mean

Greensleeves · 10/10/2006 13:39

Yes, I thought as much

Do you have cloven hooves?

I may have three boys but my sister and brother have seven girls between them so I know what little girls want to read about, don't worry.

kaloo, you are shamelessly hustling for a job... you'll go far in journalism with that sort of sickening brown-nosing.
piers, 'from the bottom up', really? really really? have you heard of 'the dry boak', because you've just induced one in me.
