I'm here and there's no escaping me
Article Abstract:
Writing can be both extremely enjoyable and profitable, according to novelist and former politician Edwina Currie. She does not miss politics, and points out that she now regards writing as her career. Her third novel, 'She's Leaving Home,' has a number of autobiographical elements, telling the story of an intelligent Jewish girl who wins a scholarship to Cambridge University, England, and falls in love with a non-Jewish boy. She is currently enjoying working hard at promoting her book, and does not feel embarrassed about drawing attention to herself.

'Of course I know it's vulgar.' (former United Kingdom Conservative party Transport Minister Steven Norris)
Article Abstract:
Former UK Conservative party Transport Minister Steven Norris, who is now head of the Road Haulage Association, claims that he does not miss politics. He believes that he only gained a high public profile accidentally. He acknowledges that he is not attractive physically, and regards himself as being extremely persuadable. He tries to be considerate, but knows that he can sometimes be selfish. He never gets depressed, and tends to worry that he does not worry enough.
