Bob Piper has been a Labour Councillor for the Abbey
Ward in Sandwell, West Midlands, for 10 years. He is a lifelong supporter of Aston Villa Football Club and a follower of Yorkshire County Cricket Club.
The views expressed here are mine in a personal capacity, not those of the Labour Party, Sandwell MBC, Aston Villa or Yorkshire County Cricket Club. Get it! Mine... just mine!
As Tom points out, wee Willie Hague has finally got around to updating his website and removing the reference to him as the Leader of the Conservative Party. Quick worker our Willie... that only took him just over 7 years.
Still, his new site needs a little bit of work on it too. Whilst it gives it plenty about his part-time job as a Member of Parliament, there's absolutely no reference to his main job as a speaker on the after-dinner circuit. In fact, if you click on the button marked 'speeches' on the right-hand side of the page we find that wee Willie has only made two bloody speeches since the start of November.
Presumably these are the speeches that our Willie doesn't trouser up to an extra 25 grand a night for over your scampi or chicken-in-a-basket, and so he doesn't get round to making too many of these.
Not much happening on the foreign affairs front, I suppose. That should give our Willie a bit more time to knock off a 500-page biography of some 18th-Century prime minister I suppose.
