Excerpt From Peter Mandelson's Memoirs

'David Milliband approached me in a corridor.He told me that Alisdair Darling had seen Gordon and told him that Harriett and Jack were putting it about that Ed Balls had told Douglas Alexander that Ed Milliband and Andy Burnham had been telling people that Alisdair Darling had seen Gordon and told him that Harriett and Jack were putting it about that Ed Balls had told Douglas Alexander that Ed Milliband and Andy Burnham had been telling people that I had been seen in a corridor talking to David Milliband.' 

Tony writes - I think that quote says it all about New £abour. Don't you just love them. Oh yes, the leadership election. How's that going?
