Buy shares in John Prescott!

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

I've just started playing a fun new online game for political anoraks like me.

It's called Polidex: http://www.polidex.co.uk.

It's very much like Celebdaq... you are given a fictional thousand quid and have to "invest" in MPs whose shares are traded on the open market.

Don't think you win anything at the moment, as it's in its fairly embryonic stages. But who knows what a sudden interest in Prezza might do for the prize budgets....?

PS I've done well buying Diane Abbott this week.
