Had It in Holland Park

"...we were so much electoral cack." That has always been true

It is only when celebrities happen to guess right that they can delude themselves that they have much in the way of electoral impact. Celebrity influence is not at election time, it is in the access that celebrity gives to those in power.
       I recall the brilliant reply to a reporter's political question that David Beckham once gave: "I have an opinion, but why would anyone care what I thought about it? I'm just a football player." I wish more celebrities would emulate him
