Grown up politics
ANDREW RAWNSLEY: "Your famous sun-tan. Is it sun-bed, or out of the bottle? It's time now to answer the question
PETER HAIN: "I don't know what it is, but it seems to be there - whether I go in the sun or not."
What has the political discourse in this country come to when the (admittedly permanently orangey-brown) Welsh Secretary is posed this question?
Was Nye Bevan ever asked if he shaved his legs?
Did anyone ever check if David Lloyd George exfoliated?
Will we ever know how many bottles Lord Salisbury took into the shower?

Is that from the new Rawnsley show on Sundays? I missed it but Private Eye said it was pony. That is trivial, although Hain claiming not to self-tan is like Posh Spice claiming not have had her tits done. I think we may be heading for a bit of a backlash over leadership stories - Today in particular are so obsessed to the exclusion of everything else, and I think one morning soon it'll just sound a bit boring.
