And I just want to say that, contrary to certain smears, I didn't join Labour because I fancy Oona King. If you must know, she fancies me. She kept calling me up in the middle of the night, begging me to help her destroy Galloway in the upcoming local election. I said yes because I'm nice...

fantastic, just listening to it now thanks
