With the news that Alan Milburn, former MP for Darlington is to join the Coalition Government which given his capacity for reinvention, is perhaps not surprising, might there be 'room' for other such 'decent dignified people' to reinvigorate themselves?

For example, Nick Griffin could join the British League of Jewish Deputies?

Obama could join the KluKluxKlan?

Thatcher could apply to the Socialist Worker?

Why not with this news, clearly stranger things have happened!

Milburn should do well in a Government of political 'greyness' where people are prepared to compromise literally anything for power.....
