Cherie Tries To Explain Bad Hair Day
Gordon Brown might be right to feel a little paranoid at the moment as his party looks elsewhere for a new leader, but the Chancellor should also be watching his back as the Prime Minister’s wife attempts to blame him for her latest hairdressing calamity.
‘He’s put Miracle Gro in my tea!’ claimed Cherie as she hacked her way through another quick-growing tendril of brown barnet before stunned (and, quite frankly, not a little scared) journalists. ‘He’s done it because he thinks I’m trying to upset his leadership bid.’ Challenged as to whether this meant that she now supports Mr. Brown, the hirsute First Lady said: ‘well… that’s hardly the point, is it? I mean: look what he’s done to my lovely locks. They completely cover my face…’
Picking up a surprise award for humanitarian work later in the day, the Chancellor denied his involvement in any plot to humiliate Mrs. Blair. ‘Just because I’m a casual gardener, and just because I happen to own some a few boxes of Miracle Gro, and just because I happened to put some of it in her tea… Well, it doesn’t mean I’m guilty, does it?’ he said.
