PARLIAMENT

has found another way of wasting our money: podcasts in which foes of the government can sound off about its deficiencies. The ‘Committee Corridor’ podcasts began as a vanity project for former soldier Tom Tugendhat. But now he has a ministerial job, the podcasts are passing to the less photogenic Labour MP Darren Jones. His first effort will include cameos by la-di-dah Tory wet Caroline Nokes, fashionable Leftie think-tanker Torsten Bell and Sir Stephen Timms, a Labour grandee with a passing resemblance to Herman Munster. A dead cert for the Baftas!
