The REAL power behind Mandy

This morning Lobbydog received a note from Lord Biro, of the Church of The Militant Elvis Party.

Attached was a copy of a letter the Lord had received from Peter Mandelson in 1997, in which Mandy thanked him for his advice and campaigning ideas.

Mandy wrote to Biro: "I will certainly bear them in mind when drawing up General Election campaigning plans.”

And what was this advice? – To wear a pair of suede shoes in order to appeal to the proletariat of course.

After Mandy was pictured last week wearing his smooth shoes Biro said: “At last he has taken my advice in order to regain their vote in 2010.”

I guess that really does mean they’re running out of ideas.
