Caroline Mitchel, the glamorous literary agent who is the wife of Lord Evans the former Government whip in the House of Lords, would not appear to believe this is a time for too stringent belt-tightening.
Mandrake hears that she jumped into a London Taxi the other day and ordered him to take her to Cambridge. She listened to a lecture by historian Lisa Jardine that went on for two hours, then ordered the cabbie to take her home. The cost of this trip was, I am told, £500. (what, no tip?) When I run the story past Miss Michel, she tells me, "I have absolutely no comment whatsoever"
