... I have just received an email from a very highly-placed person indeed, who is apparently an avid reader of this blog, pointing out that (as I wasn't going to mention, but since people are apparently saying it anyway) Alex Watson's richly deserved OBE represents the formal repudiation by the Powers That Be of the two archest of his arch-enemies, Hilary Armstrong MP and Kevan Jones MP, as well as, I might add, more minor, satellite figures such as David Hodgson and Neil Fleming.
(Not that those Powers really needed to repudiate Hodgson, given his record. And as for Fleming, does he still live in Lanchester? Except for Parish Council meetings, he is never, ever seen here anymore. But then, he never was very much.)
Anyway, since apparently everyone else is saying it out loud, I might as well, too: Happy Retirement, Hilary. And as for you, Jones, once talked of as Brown's Chief Whip, you'd better start applying for directorships of companies taking over local government services. Won't that go down well with the GMB?
