Life imitates art

In this clip from In The Loop, a hapless MP is harangued about a wall which threatens to collapse on his neighbour's mother.

Meanwhile in Parliament, Peter Mandelson is ordered to repay £800 claimed because a tree threatened to… pull down a neighbour's wall.

Brilliant film, I thought. Although not as sharp and witty as the series it was still exceptional in understanding of Government fiasco and back-stabbing.

This clip also shows the merit of Steve Coogan's characterization as no other actor would've made it so amusing.

Agree. Thanks Vole, have no time to read about the latest expenses stuff so thanks for the Mandelson corker, it'll give me a warm glow as I'm typing away this afternoon.
