Comments in Guido allude to Mr Hallam taking the spare place at ConHome? What does TB make of that...

Unsubstantiated rumour.

Comments on Guido allude to alot of things...

JK said...

Well deserved. Lets just hope that someone better than Ed Hallam takes his place at ConHome.

LOL & Ed Hallam! Doesn't he have elections to rig instead of posting comments about himself?
ConHome will get thousands of applications

the best chairman CF never had! He couldve used CF Diary (will that close?) to become chairman so easily if he wanted to.

JK said...

Erm, this is interesting from his interview on ConHome:

Toby Harlon: Young, tie-less, Cameroonian, northern, internet-savvy. How long before you are one of Dave's boys in parliament??

Probably forever! I've developed something of a cynicism about people who aim to be MPs from a young age, they often have the wrong reasons for desiring it. There are a lot ways of influencing, I'm not too sure I'm best suited to that one..

Damn, talk about a turnaround!!! I guess that's what got him the job at DC's office-being able to...turn around quickly.

Sorry.

What are you on about JK? the qu was obv about being an MP not an adviser. Sam's liked by everybody in CF. Good luck to him!

jk said...

Obviously this is a direct contradiction and he is now indeed one of 'Dave's boys'
And it's pretty much confirmed that his pretty-boy looks are what have served him so well in the past and now.
I will have to look at my party leader a bit more carefully if the qualification for getting a job in his office is to be a young boytoy.

You couldn't sound more jealous if you tried JK.

If perhaps less time bitching on blogs you get somewhere too.

Sick of pointless demening said...

Haha well done tory bear! Does JK have some sort of vendetta against Mr Coates? Or is it pure jealousy that a 22 year old boy from Liverpool has exceeded all expectations and worked himself up the political ladder?

Isnt he lovely... Congrats Sam!
