The chief of Labour's think-tank (2nd from left) and, in his own words, The Modernisers
One of my sisters took this in Cortona. Somehow, it seems fitting to include it here.

Your ‘anthem’ reminds me of what my father used to say – ‘the moment they realise that they should put some pants on, all they do is crap in them’.
Minn qatt ma ra qalziet meta jara wiehed………..
This is a very old Maltese saying that applies to pants, bidets and a host of other things as well.
Min qatt ma libes qalziet ,l-ewwel darba li libsu ghamel fih.
I am compelled to speak up in defence of Modern Talking here, lest we run away with the idea that they’re somehow fit for Labour’s skip.
Point the first: They’re German. I mean GERMAN. The land that gave us Bach, Wagner, Maxx and of course Scooter.
Point the second: This http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCDdmlEDH1s was the soundtrack to a memorable adventure behind the Iron Curtain. That 1980s dancefloor! That luminous blue vodka! At 20c a shot!
Point the third: They are a celebration of kitsch. This is what it’s all about. They even tried their hand at mullets. I challenge anyone not to jump up on the nearest box and unleash the party animal inside.
God forgive me for saying this, but I believe Modern Talking can turn Stephen Hawking into John Travolta (30 years ago).
