Has anyone read this? I'm kind of curious about it. However, if it's a complete waste of time please let me know!

massively censored apparently... I'll probably still read it though!

Yes I guess we would never find out anything really groundbreaking!

It's in the Guardian today - can't do links but I'm sure it'll be on the Guardian Unlimited website.

Nothing of great import revealed though.

I would recommend getting Servants of The People by Andrew Rawnsley if you fancy a nice gossipy read about Tony's Cronies. No sources are revealed, but Rawnsley obviously has some cabinet members amongst those spilling the beans.

Great quote from Matthew Parris in Grauniad today - AC had called him a 'little shit', and MP said 'I'd rather be a little shit than a big c*nt'.

Agree about Servants of the People - now that is really shocking in places.

Is that in the "victims bite back" bit ? I am in the slow readers' group and have not got to G2 yet (was also delayed but troublesome kakuro).

That's right, bags. I always make a beeline for the comic. Usually end up reading the broadsheet in bed at the end of the day.

Did you get around to The Thick of It, in the end?

bagsundereyes · 10/07/2007 16:43

Not yet . DH has forbidden me from watching it without him, lest I give away all the new swearing. And he's been at work all hours. Thursday will be the day........
