Harriet Harman: Got Talent, Destined for Greatness
Harriet Harman wins an ovation for her famous Janet Street-Porter impression. She beats Hazel Blears' "chipmunk" hands down, and the Labour leadership is hers, by acclamation.
Give me Stanley Baldwin back, please, and soon. Harriet reminds me of Rosa Luxemburg, I quote: "The leadership has failed. Even so, the leadership can and must be recreated from the masses and out of the masses. The masses are the decisive element, they are the rock on which the final victory of the revolution will be built. The masses were on the heights; they have developed this 'defeat' into one of the historical defeats which are the pride and strength of international socialism. And that is why the future victory will bloom from this 'defeat'. 'Order reigns in Berlin!' You stupid henchmen! Your 'order' is built on sand. Tomorrow the revolution will already 'raise itself with a rattle' and announce with fanfare, to your terror: I was, I am, I shall be!"
Um.. she did, twas York Uni. I don't know if they were biblical though, BQ. It's a scary thought: the Harpie and the Hitchens; bile and vile.
But he was a Trot then: idealistic and fiercely handsome (or was that Che?) and she: beautiful and.. fiercely ambitious? No I doubt she would have dated him - she was a bit posh and a year older. But they both read politics at York at around the same time and didn't learn much, obviously.
Crikey, BQ that thought, of issue, is going to give me nightmares.

She went to Uni with Peter Hitchens. I wonder if... ? Nah.
Why is it that protests of loyalty and support from a politician always suggest the opposite?
Street Porter may be offensive and risible, but once in a while she has said something of mild interest. Harbinger never has.
She went to Uni with Peter Hitchens. I wonder if... ? Nah.
If she had though. And an offspring had resulted?
the seas turn to fire and angels pour vials upon the earth..
Make sure you let me know WHICH university.
I don't want my kids going to it.
Never took a lesson.
She is funnier than the ghastly tedious Brown...

Muts - if he hadn't bankrupted the country then Brown would be hilarious. The way he smiles.. ok it is scary.
