Well I never!

Sam Coates of The Times had a list of 100 things you may not know about the first 100 days of the coalition government.

Among those that caught my eye:



The garden girls are being pruned – fewer are needed ‘for 4am help’ since Gordon Brown’s departure.

Banksy the graffiti artist is an old friend of Mrs Cameron from her days as an art student. Looks like a trend, what with the choice of a Ben Eine work as a gift for President Obama.

All four ministers at the Department for Energy & Climate Change are millionaires.

David Davis has suffered ‘gamekeepers wrist’, so named because the injury can be incurred by those who have strangled too many birds. Also known as skier’s thumb.

There are no Lib Dem ministers in the Departments for Culture, Environment, International Development, Wales or Northern Ireland.

Gordon Brown has not voted, spoken nor asked a single Question in Parliament since losing the premiership.
