I don't know Alastair Campbell, but the fact that the picture he chose to accompany his blog makes him look like some kind of corrupt, mid-70s copper who regularly snorts massive piles of drugs (that he has snatched off some dealer wot he nicked and then got his police mates to kick the crap out of) before going home and punching seven shades of shit out of his wife confirms one's assumption that he is almost certainly a total cunt.

Perhaps he thinks it makes him look mean, moody and dangerous. In fact, of course, it makes him look bitter, unpleasant and cruel...
