Tarts off Blair Menu

Saturday

St Paul's Grammar School for Girls in Birmingham, St Anne's College, Oxford, trainee barrister - all ideal qualifications for a prospective Labour candidate.

But 53 year old Christine Wheatley has been rejected by New Labour because her CV didn't include her six week stint as a prostitute in Paris thirty years ago.

Labour Party officials insisted she was not disqualified because of her six weeks as a prostitute but because she had been less than frank in her CV.

Ms Wheatley said: "I am not ashamed at all. I have worked as an encyclopaedia salesman in Germany - I'm more ashamed of that."

"Less than frank" - sounds ideally suited to a position in New Labour.

Don't call us Christine - just leave your card so that we can call you.

"The average teenager thinks about sex once every 15 seconds". Only once? Lucky us old boggers are still around.
