Will British troops in Helmand have appreciated a visit from the Leader of the Opposition or will they be wondering who he is and what he's doing there?

Any opportunity to get away from the Balls-Coopers I'd say .

Apparently Balls was back in 'deficit denier' mode on the Marr show this morning. I almost feel sorry for EdM.

(my bit for your cunning plan)

Deficit denier? Sounds like tights, can't quite see him as a drag queen though.

VIP tours are often referred to as "morale sapping visits", but really they are a good thing.

And as the latest Forces sweetheart is a drag queen, perhaps he should take the tights.....

Latest Forces sweetheart?

Yup!

S/he's called Cookie Monstar, and here's a link.

Drag Queen?, yes I'm sure our boys are loving it, seeing a man in drag, after not having it for 6 months! Far better Beyonce!

Saw 'Cookie' he's not half bad!

better than going over to Greenland and having husky rides to promote 'green' living (would have been greener not to get on a plane I think...) as Cameron did.
