"Evil Tendencies" - updated.

It was always going to be a tough gig for the New Statesman's political editor James Macintyre. Having just weeks ago smeared the Conservatives as "institutionally racist", James was doing his best to charm the crowd at their reception on Sunday night. First up Dale was cornered for a chat, but others went in for the kill. Mr denied smearing and indeed swore he hated Draper,Mcbride and even Gordon, who he claimed had "evil tendancies." What was he so adamant to deny to TB though?

Amazing how champagne can loosen the tongue eh!
