The Greasy Pole

that: "Eyebrows were raised when Straw pulled out of a planned broadcast interview on Friday in the wake of the byelection defeat. It is not clear when he will next appear on the media. "Jack Straw is strangely silent," one senior Labour figure said. But this speculation was dismissed by Straw supporters. "Jack doesn't even own a grey suit," one friend said."Well that's not quiet true is it...
Correct me if I'm wrong but that suit looks pretty damn grey to me.
I wonder when Jack will put it on next. This is a man of ruthless ambition and the definition of greased up piglet. Beginning life as horrible NUS hack he made it to the top of that ladder (always a sign of dubious character as there is no way you reach that position without back stabbing and trampling- nice guy's finish last at NUS.) He now has the chance to seize upon the ultimate goal, be it only for two years or so.
I imagine the suit is back from the cleaners ready for it's most important outing yet...

"Jack Straw’s friends are trying to distance the Justice Secretary from rumours that he will eventually be the “man in a grey suit” who tells a beleaguered Gordon Brown that it’s time to go. “He doesn’t even own a grey suit,” one tells The Guardian. But after extensive research (entering “Jack Straw” and “grey suit” into Google) we can tell you he has worn one on at least two occasions. It’s not important, but we feel it’s what we’re here for"
Old news tory bear, old news!
disaster!
In the country for the week so missing out on the papers!
Is there an equivilent for a "hat-tip" when you get something at the same time without realising?
