Ruth Kelly Gets Mrs Fawkes' Vote

A death in the family was the reason for Guido going offline last week. The difficult times meant Mrs Fawkes had to leave her office in a rush, picking up baby Fawkes from the creche en route in a taxi for City Airport, bound for Bolton.

Struggling at the check-in counter with bags, pushchair, crying snotty baby and tickets, the many pinstriped 'gentlemen' around her ignored her clear difficulties. A familiar looking woman stepped forward and helped with the heavy bags. As a result the MP for Bolton West can rely on Mrs Fawkes' support ever more.

It certainly is remembered when a politician acts like a decent human being. A few years ago, a friend of mine was taken ill on the train, and was helped by Alex Salmond. As my friend is an Englishman living in England, it was pure altruism on Mr Salmond's part, since there were clearly no votes in it for his party. To that Englishman, the SNP leader is a Scottish gentleman.

Sorry to hear your family news G. But this is the trouble with wives...they have a most regrettable tendency to judge people as human beings rather than political enemies.

Doesn't helping someone with their bags at an airport automatically make you a terrorist?
