Question Time: Peter Mandelson, Jane Moore, Ken Clarke and W Menzies Campbell


David Dimbleby says Tony Blair said in 1996: "My work will be done when the Labour Party loves Peter Mandelson". Mandelson hopes that even those that hate him respect his "invention" of New Labour.

W Menzies Campbell says Gordon Brown has a "Towering Intellect" and runs this line about an early General Election. The sooner it is the sooner Ming gets to retire and put his feet up I suppose. And he seems to be snoozing tonight.

Kenneth Clarke is being Kenneth Clarke. Affable has been might have been Hush Puppy jazzer.

And who here cares what Jane Moore says? Waste of a chair really.

Ming has been bursting. Look here, look here, look here, he says finally. But he's busted.

Mandelson really has dominated this special edition of BBC Question Time, almost completely.

APART FROM DIMBLEBY: Ming got last word. The Q - Blair reached No 10 on 'Things Can Only Get Better', what will he go out on? Ming suggested something. Forgetable. My answer: 'Things Can Only Get Better'.

UPDATE: Ming actually suggested 'Spinning Around' by some "beat combo". On the pulse. Or what?

No it was "Spinning Around" by little Kylie. He was smug but when did Ming last buy a modern cassette C90. do we both watch Q-Time, and surf every Thurs night...maybe we should do IM

IM? Sheesh, we could go wall-to-wall. Usually I do Newsnight. And I think Mandelson's dominance of a weedy line up may have been a waste of my time

I was once at an NUJ branch meeting in Birmingham which Jane Moore attended.
You are a typical middle class Chorltonite - abusing the organised workers.

No, just Jane, Ming and Ken. She had nothing much to say did she?
