Lady of the manners

Interesting. You seem to be suffering from what I like to call 'a complete lack of self-awareness'. It's a technical term, so let me clarify: where you see charisma and big ideas, the world sees, well, a bit of a buffoon. In the eyes of the public you remain that chap who once went out with a Cheeky Girl half his age, lost his safe seat in parliament, and then disappeared into the I'm a Celebrity... jungle to get bitten by a snake on live television. That doesn't mean we've got a problem, it means you've repeatedly failed to grasp what does and does not inspire voter confidence.

So now we've sorted out that little misunderstanding, it's decision time. Either you can stop the TV appearances, give up on the 'comedy', settle down with a sensible, more age-appropriate woman and run for Mayor, or you can continue on the path to minor celebrity. Since you're currently dating a 22-year-old hottie and are about to hit our screens in the exciting reality show Celebrity Coach Trip alongside Michael Barrymore, I'd say the die is already cast. Bon voyage!
