‘Influential’ list continues

By | Wed 17th September 2008 - 11:28 am

Iain Dale’s list continues in the Telegraph, and the Voice team, variously drunk, hungover and sleep deprived have reacted most waspishly to nos 11-20:

“Former Lib Dem MP? Don’t they mean ‘Lib Dem Peer’?”

“Norman Baker is more influential than Ed Davey?!”

“Graham Watson is no longer the Leader of the Lib Dem MEPs – he’s leader of ALDE. Andrew Duff is leader of the Lib Dem MEPs and he was in yesterday!”

“Lembit, only 18?”

Still, I suppose it’s got us talking, which is rather the point.

Interestingly, it seems the Telegraph, like many other delegates, have been caught out by this whole “conference starting a day early” thing and will run the final countdown (diddle oo doo, diddle dit de dee) tomorrow, after conference has drawn to a close.
