And tonight, she has jumped the shark.
Post below the line what you feel might be the real reasons why she was never made Deputy Prime Minister.
The Deputy Leadership of the Labour Party has effectively been vacant for years. There is no shortage of more than credible candidates.

The first national newspaper to break the PIE story, at least in recent years, was the Daily Telegraph on 9th March 2009.
DeleteMartin Beckford had been in touch with me about it all, and there it was.

Indeed, rumour has it that almost no one is going to be working there before long. But that would be off topic.
