Justin - Peter Cruddas resigned after he was filmed offering the services of David Cameron to potential investors. He claimed his time as Tory treasurer was difficult; well they do say pimping ain't easy. I expect underhanded, slimy actions from government officials but when you get fooled by journalists wearing fake beards its time to step down -and take a job at the Newsjack shop!

GRAMS: infomercial style music

V/O - Who would you most like to share an evening with?

Woman 1 - The Dalai Lama

V/O - Guess again

Woman 1 - Barack Obama

V/O - One more time

Woman 1 - Ant and or Dec

V/O - This is embarrassing. You can have lunch with Prime Minister David Cameron for the low low price of two hundred and fifty thousand pounds with many things included

Woman 1 - What if I want to shape future policies?

V/O - Included in the price

Woman 1 - Can I ask Mr. Cameron how he feels, as a millionaire, about the millionaire tax rate set by millionaires?

V/O - Its included in the price. And for a limited time only buy the Tories and get the Lib Dems free

Woman 1 - Can I punch Nick Clegg in one of his faces?

V/O - As long as you don't jump the queue. Please note side effects of meeting Cameron may involve vomiting, uncontrollable rage and erectile dysfunction

END

Nice sketch with a good opening line. They went for something very similar to this in the show so I guess you can take that as a compliment! The one in the show was a bit longer than this and had more gags as a result.

Yeah, this is pretty good. Some strong, funny lines in there and a good start to the sketch. Newsjack shop sketches tend to be a bit longer, so maybe that needs working on but I liked it.

I appear to be in quite a good mood this afternoon.
