Just one day after Gordon Brown announced that he had saved the world, the Daily Sport has hired Lembit Opik MP as its new political columnist presumably in the hope that he will do the same for it.
Opik - well known for his colourful personal life helped, it is rumoured, in some part by his House of Commons nickname ‘Tripod' - says in the accompanying press release: ‘I can't wait to get started, this is the perfect partnership'. And judging by the accompanying picture he's probably not lying.
Given that the Daily Sport's circulation has been in freefall and now hovers around the 77,000 mark, his contribution to the nipple count will be welcome.
