Mark Oaten MP

There is a telling interview with Mark Oaten on Iain Dale's new blog http://www.totalpolitics.com/politico.php
We in Winchester have been hearing rumours for some time that he's preparing to step down and is hoping for a job in the States. Here are a couple of the questions and answers:

Q: Which five words would your friends use about you?
A: Shy, distant

Q: What's your favourite view in the world?
A: Crossing the bridge into Manhattan from JFK

If his answer to the first question raises doubts in your mind about his numerical skills, this answer sheds light on his ability to spell:

Q: What do you never miss on TV?
A: Paying my license. And Frazier re-runs.

And if you were in doubt about his tastes, consider this:

Q: What's your favourite dish?
A: Fried steak with cheese and salmon pate

Fried steak with cheese? The man is a barbarian. He probably likes it well done too.I believe in France that's a hanging offence....
