Peter Mandelson officially took his seat in the House of Lords today, following his recent appointment to the Cabinet as Business Secretary. Swathed in a charming little ermine-lined scarlet number, he swore his allegiance to the Queens and was dubbed Baroness Mandelson of Fey in the county of Herefordshire and Hartley Hare in the county of Pipkins, although he is to be known simply as 'The Red Baron'. On his return to the "Labour family" he said "third time lucky" and declared the present financial crisis called for "all hands on dick".
It was revealed last week that, before accepting the position, he approached former PM Tony Blair for his advice on Gordon Brown's offer, to which Tony merely replied "no-brainer"; whether he was referring to the offer or Gordon Brown is still unclear at this time.
