I used to be quite interested in these appointments, but her interest in the trade is likely to go no further than a couple of speeches and press releases drafted by civil servants, and within a year or two (at most) she'll either be promoted, demoted or shunted sideways, more than likely to another department.

But I see that one of the main responsibilities of the new Secretary of State for Transport (Douglas Alexander) is 'deregulation' and that one of his past briefs was 'better regulation'. :shock:

Yes, Ms. Merron often seeks my advice on taxi matters.

Also Margeret Beckett, the new Foreign Secretary, is an ex-MP for Lincoln, when she was Margeret Jackson. Her husband, the caravan loving Leo Beckett, was her agent. Bit of a hint of the "Prescotts" when he divorced his wife and married the Princess Anne lookalike Margeret. :roll:

And It's a pity you've misspelt her name. You know how touchy people are about that sort of thing.

Does spelling Margaret with an 'e' come into that category?

Thrice? :wink:

You need to be correct, when you send her e-mails, don't you?

One would think so?

How do you spell her name, or is that a secret?
