Readers have called for an end to politics on this blog.

Do not worry. In an hour I leave for an afternoon function at 14 Savile Row in aid of the late Sir Hardy Amies (don’t ask).

All the same, two leading Poor Little Rich Gays, minimum, are in the thick of it. Anthony Mottram (not heard of by me for two weeks. Readers must await sensational developments) is ‘consulting’, his gruelling deadline the MPs return to the Commons House next week. The great Lord Arrowby, behind-the-scenes fixer in the highest corridors of power, actually telephoned me yesterday direct from the Nation’s throbbing heart. Can you imagine?  Having the time for such as me! Fearfully discreet, of course, as these non-aligned always are. Merely confirmed that yes, he is there, where history is being made, at the centre of things but, for the moment,  party members are running the show.

On the weekend, the Multis surged into Tory heartlands, targeting a Sunday luncheon venue in the constituency with the largest swing to Con of all. See graph below. I have heard no more about the Photographer Multi’s Mother’s 80th Birthday Dinner. No doubt I shall.

Elsewhere, Poor Little Rich Gays have resumed their proper pursuits. Peter Acharya has thrown away all his partner, Ned Czernowski’s, clothes prior to re-styling him. At work, he has also got hold of a compromising e-mail. In Hastings, Angus Willis, leading food writer and stylist, is having plaice with cabbage and carrots. He is also looking at ice-cream makers. Fergus Strachan, his partner and Lib Dem supporter, cannot be parted from his huge yellow rosette.

I have been cleaning, in the interim between my hired lady on Thursdays. I do hope the new government, whatever it is, will pass a law requiring cleaners to get into corners. Because they don’t. Let’s hope also that the new politics, if it is new, will mean an upward surge in politicians’ frockage. The Clegg weekend leisure wear (horrid baggy dark shirt) was very disappointing. Cameron has been wearing some interesting fine knits but all in navy and black.

Time to branch out and up.
