Nick's column in the Standard
It's a peach. Ooh it's a pudding. It's not that it ... no, I can't bear to spoil the surprise. You'll have to wait till it comes up on the blog. But it really is a stunner. I'm chortling right now. Cyber chutney arse ducks. It really is a quite flabbergasting column. No more clues. Sorry, I'm quite overwrought with columnar intoxication.

Thanks for that information free post mate....
well sorry and all that, but it will be up on the cohenblog soon and I really do think that this is one column that you have to read in full rather than in a summary. I'd feel terrible if I spoiled the surprise, I can't explain why for obvious reasons. but I promise you it will be worth the wait.
But what if it doesn't get onto the site?
It's on the cohenblog now, assuming 'Married to the Mob' is the piece in question.
It got to me because I come from Tessa Jowell’s Leftish middle class ... we will all vote Lib Dem
hahahahahahahahaha. oh nick, oh really.
Friday forecast
I still fight against War
Come on you Decents!
Kate Winslet should have been fined
What a very odd article.
I got the Irving prediction right though, for Sunday I predict he might jump on the Hitchens Demo bandwaggon (see here http://christopherhitchenswatch.blogspot.com/2006/02/silky-ones.html )

As has Ollie http://oliverkamm.typepad.com/blog/2006/02/stand_by_denmar.html
surely Nick could have made money from David Irving if the libel suit had failed?
Unfortunately not really; Irving doesn't actually have any money worth speaking of, so all the people who won damages against him and both sets of lawyers ended up more or less wearing the cost and grouching about it.
It was in 'Why it's right to hate traffic wardens'*, in which he exclaimed:
Even Kate Winslet was clamped fter she left her car for a moment to go into an Islington shop.
* Which appeared in the New Statesman in 2004 and then with a few revisions in the Evening Standard late 2005.
On Irving, in the famous libel case against Penguin and Deborah Lipstadt, he defended himself, as he had a better grasp of the material, or 'no-one's going to be able to argue this case except me', which isn't quite the same thing. Mein fuhrer.
It's not quite confirmed yet. I believe they have written to the Danish embassy to ask what would be most welcome, to which the reply is almost certainly going to be 'could you just forget about it please'.
