It has been most entertaining watching the PM attempt to disassociate himself from his right hand (or Michael Levy as he's known to most).

Steve Bell put it elegantly in The Guardian this morning too.

Wonder of wonders, The Sun has a magnificent scoop today with the voice recording from two US planes involved in a friendly fire incident against British troops in Iraq.

Also, it has emerged that Jonathan Powell, the PM's most senior aide, is about to be interviewed again by the Met in respect of the loans for peerages allegations.

Now, who might have an interest in making sure there was a good, big, dramatic story in the public eye today? Coroners don't talk to the media, the US certainly are not happy about the leak - who does that leave?

The PM has been interviewed for the second time about the loans for lordships affair. His own personal fundraiser, Lord Michael Levy, has been re-arrested about the matter. It's all very, very smelly.

Incidentally, the nation's prisons are full and overflowing again.

I wonder if anyone will be able to bring themselves to offer the former prime Minister Blair the traditional lordship after he has resigned?
