"Vote blue, go green. That is the motto of Conservative leader David Cameron. And he has gone to various lengths to prove it. There was sledging with huskies in Norway; he has also extolled the virtues of a £10,000 wind-powered generator he wants to add to the roof of his home in Notting Hill, London; and he has promoted the obvious benefits of electric cars even though - and this is his green trump card - he cycles to work. So, practically no carbon emissions.
Well, so long as there isn't a chaffeur-driven Lexus arriving shortly after the Tory leader's two-wheeled departure to collect his clean shirt, paperwork and freshly polished shoes. It was revealed last night that, as Mr Cameron champions the need for better parks, more recycling and heading to the Arctic to examine climate change, his briefcase and other personal effects have their own personal courier.
"David is well-known for cycling to parliament," one source told the Daily Mirror yesterday. "But they always send his car home as well to pick up the morning papers and any personal items he'll need for the day. He leaves a pile of things inside the front door."
It's a tough life...

Is this where Cameron got his idea from?
