Olivia hopes to needle MPs

THERE’S a new point to politics. Model

turned acupuncturist Olivia Inge has opened her first clinic in London’s Upper Berkeley Street — and she wants to give the needle to our overstressed parliamentarians.

‘If they had acupuncture, they would be more relaxed and make better decisions,’ Olivia tells me of her alternative medicine practice in which fine needles are inserted into the body.

‘I’d like to get my hands on everyone in the Cabinet. Acupuncture helps you sleep better, and looking at Theresa May’s face I doubt she’s getting a good eight-hour stretch every night.’

Olivia, a descendant of Victorian prime minister William Gladstone, adds: ‘If Theresa wanted to come to my clinic, I wouldn’t give her a discount. She’d have to pay like everyone else.’
