I am so with the Zeitgeist - see my entry where I commented on the good looks of Ben Bradshaw and by implication, Stephen Twigg. Turns out that Gaydar held a poll to establish to Britian's sexiest MP.
Rebellious Lords, resurgent Tories, renewed turmoil in Iraq ... the PM is a man, to quote Wodehouse, who has been through the furnace. But Pendennis has news that will spread sweetness and light throughout Downing Street: the nation's leader is now officially a gay icon. The PM tops a new poll conducted by Gaydar, the website for the gay community, and AXM magazine, to find Britain's sexiest MP. TB scored a hefty 25 per cent of the vote, putting him ahead of faux blonde bombshell, Ann Widdecombe. For the record, Michael Howard came bottom with just 2 per cent.
Shall we have a straw poll? Hmm, bad wording there, I'm afraid...And if people respond, I'll repeat the exercise the weekend after the General Election.
My vote goes to Tony, because despite the aesthetic appeal of Ben and Stephen, and a few others, there is more to sexiness than just good looks.
I have met an extraordinary number of women who have the hots for John Prescott. And Gordon Brown's smouldering definitely does it for others. Not eligible, but Alastair Campbell has been known to cast a spell on otherwise sensible women.

The Tories' main problem is that they don't have anyone you'd want to go to bed with.
Thinking, thinking, thinking...
No...I'm stumped.
But the single most disturbing thing comes at the end of Pendennis
Spotted jogging around Kennington last Friday afternoon: Peter Mandelson's special adviser, Roger Liddle. 'He was wearing a Lycra top that was much too small,' a startled onlooker reports. 'The top had go-faster stripes, but they didn't seem to be working.'
Now, don't get me wrong, I like Roger Liddle - he was very sweet and sympathetic when I got mugged, and I always remember such acts of kindness, but, in all truth, I am disturbed by this thought.
