Re Margot James - I was shocked to be advised by His Eminence himself (!) that she is a star, the only “points recorded against” being that Iain Dale has said she is one of the nicest people in politics!

She is PPC for the Stourbridge constituency, a Labour marginal in the West Midlands.

Re Trisha Goddard - she is not the thinking man's Vanessa Feltz! - so no need to weep I would say.

She has some proper formal training, I believe in counselling, and is a fairly serious person in terms of having a grip on realities.

Of course, that she would want to involve herself in a show like BBC QT does itself raise questions!
