Interesting interview on BBC last night.   
He describes himself as "at heart, a centre-right, progressive modern conservative". Plus he lives surrounded by media and actor-y luvvies in Camberwell.   
In other words sopping, sopping wet.   
Dripping wet, and our Lord D fawning all over him.    
Basically Kenneth Baker with more messy hair. Geoffrey Howe with better jokes. A slightly more masculine Virginia Bottomley.   
Sopping sopping wet.
