The Pale Yellow Ticket
HH author Toby Litt just emailed to tell us he has been given a seat at the year’s most hotly-anticipated political showdown, as Tony Blair testifies to the House of Commons select committee on Iraq.
In Toby’s words: ‘The golden ticket – in fact, it’s pale yellow – came through the door last Friday. I’d put in for the postal ballot almost without thinking. Chances were, my name wouldn’t be picked out. Chances were, like everyone else, I’d watch the highlights on TV. Instead, reading the small print on the ticket’s reverse, I saw that I was going to be – for three hours – in the most focussed-upon, most discussed location in the world…’
We look forward to hearing all about it.
