OK - I know The Alastair Campbell diaries were published in way back in July but I have been busy with other things.
Plus everyone said all the best bits had been censored or something like that. Imagine my surprise when I did finally sit down to read them.
Obviously, I was searching through the book for clues about Blair's two reasonably dishy sons, Nicky and Euan, when I found this Campbell revelation.
He went to chat with the First Lord of the Treasury and the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom on December 1st about press reports that dishy son No 1 was to be sent to a grant-maintained school.
"I went in to see TB, who was standing stark naked reading the Mail," wrote Mr Campbell.
Nude Daily Mail reading. You didn't get that under John Major.
How widespread was this nudie behaviour in Downing St? Why wasn't he at least wearing pants?
I guess we will have to wait for Cherie's book to find out.
"Naked in Front of Ali"? I was trying to think who you were referring to: Monica Ali? Mohammed Ali? I think "Naked in front of Campbell" would have been a bit clearer - as long as people realised you weren't talking about Naomi Campbell.
