Who Let the Dog(s) Out? Or off their leads anyway.

Poor Old Charles Clarke. A definate knickers-in-twist scenario seems to be in the offing. The Security Elephant is huffing and puffing about Jack Dromey's all-too-reasonable reaction to the 'PeerGate' debacle.
Jumbo said to a 'Westminster Lunch' - so, no sober souls there, then - that "you have to wonder how well he (Dromey) was doing his work". Pretty rich, huh?

He probably wants Jack to get some kind of parity with himself, since people are almost continually asking the same question of Herr Clarke...
...and coming up with the answer not unlike that of Alan Sugar's firing line in last week's Apprentice:"You're a bloody lightweight - you should be fired".


Update: Jumbo has been promoted to chief seer to No.10, it seems. He now happily proclaims that Bliar will be with us until "sometime in 2008".
Only one small problem, though, this oh-so-juicy little tidbit didn't come from any briefing, or conversation with Ol' Tone, or any of that - oh, no. "he also said his opinion was not based on any inside knowledge or conversations".

So you just made it up, because you knew the soundbite would carry a spoiler story for the end of day news cycle. What a complete fuckwit.
