DO TELL, NADINE...

A RARE voice of sanity on the over-sexed men and scantily dressed waitresses at the all-male Presidents Club dinner. Tory MP Nadine Dorries suggests she’s seen worse: ‘I deplore the behaviour that took place. However, a bit uncomfortable with the “men only” bashing. I’ve been on “girls only” nights since I was old enough!’

A SURVEY of peers’ language usage on Twitter put the Lib dems at the top of the foul-mouthed league. according to the analysis, six of the ten most ‘sweary’ lords are Lib dems — with Baroness Ludford most culpable, having Tweeted or endorsed 51 profanities last year. I fear that, in private, her obscenities are more numerous — considering that public support for the Lib dems is a wretched seven per cent.

SO MUCH for comradeship among labour Party members. Wannabe parliamentary candidate Christian Wolmar was canvassing when he spotted former leader tony Blair. Hoping for a chat, Wolmar was ushered out of Blair’s way by two machine gun-toting bodyguards.

OVERHEARD in a Commons bar amid smirking about Ukip’s priapic, under-siege leader henry Bolton: ‘There are only 337 Ukip leaders until Christmas.’

LORD ROBATHAN, a former tory deputy chief whip, complained last week that cuts to defence budgets had ‘gone down to the bone’. is this the same lord robathan, who as a defence minister in the tory-led Coalition, presided over defence spending being cut by eight per cent?

ANTI-royal Labour MP Emma Dent Coad (who made fun of her Kensington constituent Prince Harry’s military service record) is in danger of making an enemy of another Londoner. Highlighting soaring crime rates in the capital, she tweeted that knife offences are up 23 per cent, robberies up 30 per cent, as well as rises in vehicle thefts, break-ins and murders. She said: ‘Things are going backwards under the Tories.’ One problem: law and order in London is the responsibility of her Labour colleague, Mayor Sadiq Khan.
