It’s a tie (2)

Downing Street, who read this blog, have just informed me that the Prime Minister is going to auction his tie.  This is clearly an escalation, and now David must auction his tie as well.  It will obviously raise more.  But a dangerous precedent has now been set.  Presumably every charity in the country will now be sending ties to TB and DC and asking them to wear them and auction them.  And also, why wasn’t Ming included?

  1. Ming wasn’t included because an auction for his tie wouldn’t cover the cost of buying it in the first place.

  2. Surely not nearly as exciting as George Galloway’s Respect Party logo competition.

    I would suggest a silhouette of a man on all fours pretending to be a cat!

  3. Ah well, it is at least one item less for the police to remove from St. Toné when knacker of the Yard invites him in for a hands on inspection of a cell, whilst ahem helping with their enquiries.

  4. Ed, your biography seems to have overlooked your spell at the leading lobbying company, Politics International, in the last 90’s. I think you should add this, for the sake of completeness.
