I am no great supporter of Neil, but I had to laugh at the way he flummoxed Shapps this morning on Sunday Politics, when he asked him why there were so many Old Etonians in the Cabinet. Shapps had no real answer, except to say most of us don't care what school people attended. Oh, yes, we do, Mr. Shapps! We would like our lawmakers to be appointed on merit, not through an old boy network.

Loved watching Shapps squirm along with all the other MPs who have been interviewed. They are all convinced they did well in the election. I notice the Cons are now blaming the Lib Dem as well as Labour for all our problems. Watch out UKIP your next.

Andrew Neil's hair used to fascinate me. I've moved on.grin

Isn't Shapps the one who has been selling his services as a business - sorry I mean "get rich quick" - guru under an assumed name?
Oh yes:
