Webcameron has interviews with three new Shadow Cabinet members, and three of the Shadow Cabinet members with the most senior roles to have changed hands.
Sayeeda Warsi (Community Cohesion - read about her on today's Platform) talks about taking ownership of communities and the Union Flag, Dame Pauline (Security) talks at length about her new role with Vote Blue Go green flashing on the computer behind her, and Jeremy Hunt (DCMS) says he wants Britain to have the best quality of life industries (arts, sport etc):
Caroline Spelman says she is honoured with her new role as Chairman and that she wants "CCHQ to work for you", Nick Herbert talks about getting his teeth into prisons and constitutional reform, and Michael Gove says he couldn't wish for a better job than Children, Family and Schools and would be euphoric if had the portfolio in Government:
That's "Dame Pauline" to you, Tim!
I will be interested to see how handles her transition from respected specialist to front-line politician of the first rank.

Andrew, it is more like "The Thick of It" than "The Office"!

I used to find it quite amusing but my wife hated it and used to kick up such a fuss that eventually I stopped bothering to watch it.
I used to work with somebody like the Ricky Gervaise character. He ended up with a nervous breakdown and became a transvestite.

There seems to be some question marks re Warsi and comments supporting radicals.
Have we scored yet another own goal.
