I was complaining the other day about how shallow our current crop of political leaders are.
Chief amongst them is the Prime Minister himself who, had he had the guts to call a General Election in October 2007 as originally planned, would have partly campaigned under the slogan "Not Flash, Just Gordon."
This is the same Gordon Brown who promised that spin would disappear with Tony Blair.
And the same Gordon Brown who, after it was recently revealed that Mr Blair had spent more than £1,800 of taxpayers' money on cosmetics and make-up artists between 1999 and 2005, claimed that he himself had spent nothing on make-up.
What a blow it must therefore be tonight for the Great Leader and his court to see pictures of him on the news having full make-up applied prior to getting off the plane to meet US President Barack Obama.
They say a picture says a thousand words, so I need say no more.
