I never thought I’d find myself wring this but someone close to Harrods’s owner the Phony Pharaoh is talking common sense.

There was no midweek Tomograph thanks to my laptop dying on me and to having to waste an entire day of my life on Sefton Resources. And so there will be a bumper weekend edition of the Tomograph out on Saturday evening.
Register HERE to join the ever growing Tomograph mailing list. In this weekend’s issue you will, as always, find links to all the content that has appeared on the TomWinnifrith.com website this week. And given how much I am writing today (Saturday) the total scores on the doors will not be insignificant.
You will also find two exclusive pieces. I the first I explain why my pin-up girl Melanie Phillips should replace George Osborne as chancellor of the Exchequer and in the second I explain why the Cheeky Girls should replace Home Secretary Theresa May to deal with immigration but also welfare reform.
More women in the cabinet... you can see what a progressive I am.
And I have a new feature, Bulletin Board tosser of the week.
