The Fine Art of Political Nonsense

Politicians talking about art is like a cat reviewing jazz: confused, unimpressed, but acting like they get it.

Booed Entry: Former MP Sir Michael Fabricant Joins Celebrity Big Brother House

Sir Michael Fabricant, a former Conservative MP from Lichfield, entered the Celebrity Big Brother house along with 12 other contestants. He was booed by the crowd as he walked in and was interviewed by presenters AJ Odudu and Will Best. Fabricant, who lost his seat in the general election last July, said he will try to be charming, fun, and nice to everyone in the house. The leader of Lichfield District Council, Doug Pullen, is not surprised that Fabricant was signed up for the show, saying it's a good fit for his big personality.
