Will Kinnock curse strike again?

John Rentoul

helle 300x200 Will Kinnock curse strike again? Or, “Former Labour leader’s glamorous Danish daughter-in-law faces election defeat over claims she’s a ‘Gucci diva’.”

If I had seen this Daily Mail story (online version only) nine days ago, I might have listed it as a Question to Which the Answer is No in anticipation of the victory of Neil Kinnock’s daughter-in-law (right) in the Danish election on Thursday.

Still, with the security of hindsight, it is number 706.

The article also scores a triple hit on the Banned List, with “snatched defeat from the jaws of victory”, “moniker” and “glamorous lifestyle”. (Yes, the book, The Banned List, is coming out on 20 October and it will also be an e-book.)

More Questions to Which the Answer is No tomorrow.
