Watching Iceland play in the European Cup last week there was a fair attempt at humour as the commentator pointed out that they draw their team from roughly the equivalent population of Leicester. Thus, if you're a bloke between 20 and 40 you stand about a one in two thousand chance of being in the team. (Something like that).

Given the way things are shaping for Labour much the same odds might be offered for being in the Shadow Cabinet. I've had my phone within arm's reach during the day on the off chance I might get the nod.

I'll keep you posted ...
