Wolf whistles for Mandelson, no ordinary Cabinet minister

Not many Cabinet ministers get wolf whistled as they go to the podium. But Peter Mandelson is no ordinary Cabinet minister.

He is talking about himself as he starts his speech… about what drew him back.

It’s enormously self-confident and self-referential. They appear to have pushed him down the running order to make sure the hall filled up.

It has now filled up a bit… very nearly full… and he’s getting a huge amount of applause.

At the Labour conference, but where is everyone?
