In a spin over summer pops....

AND AN EXPLANATION FOR WHY THERE HAVE BEEN SO MANY FREE PUFFS FOR THE ARENA IN THE ECHO AND THE POST IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS....

Guess who the spin doctor for the new arena is Tony?
None other than your old friend Jon Brown, who worked so assiduously on behalf of Chas at the infamous lobbying meeting with the Harbarrowboy, way back when the evil cabal website was running rampant.
Dunno whether Brown had to formally tender for the job, or how much it was worth, but he was an obvious shoe-in being so close and friendly to Chas, I would have thought.
Makes it much easier for Chas for them both to have the same PR person, when he brings back the Pops at the arena next year.
And won't that be hunky dory for everyone then?
Lots of loverly cash...

SO FAREWELL THEN, EDITRESS JANE....

I have it on good authority (?) that Jane Wolstenholme, esteemed editress of the Liverpool Daily Post is leaving to become a full-time novelist.
Ms Wolstenholme is, of course, also married to PR supremo Jon Brown, who last caught the attention of bloggers when he turned up at the side of Chas 'show me the money' Cole to brief the Liverpool Echo about the appearance of Madonna at the Summer Pops in 2008.
This was, of course, complete fiction, which the Echo duly swallowed.
Not surprisingly, since Mr Brown had previously been deputy editor of the Echo. (Liverpool is a real media village, isn't it? ed)
Anyway good luck to the lovely Jane, who has already penned her first work of fiction, which is attractively described as part of the 'chick-lit' genre.
She has had a six figure advance from Simon and Shuster to come up with the second novel next year and in between will be helping out Mr Brown's successful PR business in the city.
She will apparently rejoice in the pen-name of Jane Costello, so will fit on the shelves alongside Joan and Jackie Collins. (Nothing wrong with pen-names, ed)
And good luck to the lovely Mr Brown, (So we are being equally sexist then, are we? ed) who will no doubt be working hard to keep her in the style to which she has been accustomed.
We should point out gratefully, that under Ms Wolstenholme (ooerrmissus), (thought the non sexism was too good to last, ed) the Daily Post has knocked spots off its craven stablemate, the Liverpool Echo.
The Echo has ensured that its readers remain blissfully ignorant of all the scandal and corruption orchestrated by the evil cabal who governed the city.
Readers can instead concentrate all their attention on the Echo's unremittingly depressing diet of gun crime, drugs and 'D' list celebrities.
We can only hope that Ms Wolstenholme's successor shows similar journalistic talent and integrity.
