Constituency for me, however, the day has not been uneventful so far in the ‘team Dorries’ office in London.

My PA is off to Paris on her hen weekend today, which has been organised by my very first intern; a group of them are leaving from Heathrow early this morning - or they were...  Everyone has made the flight, except my PA and my first intern, team leader.

The next possible flight is 6pm tonight.

My advice by text so far has been; go to BA desk and explain situation in calm logical manner, if no result CRY – if this doesn’t work hyperventilate – do not leave the desk once you reach it, make sure a long queue forms behind you and cry louder.

Anyone got any other suggestions?

Decided not to take Quentin's office. It’s no where near as nice as the one the Labour whips offered me!

Blog Update for friends and family! - Philippa  got a 2.1. I am about to burst with pride!!

Congrats to philippa, is she your first born?

You are like a mummy to your flock obviously.

Has she got there then? What's going on?

Nadine for party chairman - my choice

Labour whips? Why would they give you an office? do they want you to defect to them?

Ahh, congratulations!

I am so glad Nadine that you did not take over Quentin Davies office. It would have tainted you and you would probably have found the stench unbearable. For him to remain as MP for the people who have put him there as a Conservative is absolutely appalling. He is a traitor of the first order, a Judas. At least Judas did the honourable thing and hung himself.

Congratulations Philippa! Much love, Lizzie xx

She could take the train?

Brilliant news......Congratulations Philippa, all your hard work came to fruition. Good luck with your future endeavours.
