Folletted

Why does Barbara Follett need £25,000 of private security - all paid for by the taxpayer?
She's a millionaire anyway.
She's Minister of Tourism, not Defence/FCO/Northern Ireland etc. It screams self-important, narcissistic loony.

The only enemies she has are the Labour MPs she mercilessly bullied in the 90s, when it was apparently her job to make them buy designer suits and have trendy haircuts to show how 'New Labour' they were (which insultingly assumes that voters actually make their choice by consulting GQ rather than on political matters). Her husband Ken also has enemies - literary critics and anybody who's bought one of his books at the airport.
