When you're really famous in politics, you become known by just your first name. Boris, Dave, Ken, Lembit, and, of course, Vince.
The business secretary was a cult figure before the election, lauded for being an economic guru and successfully reducing the Commons to gales of laughter while taking the mickey out of Gordon Brown.
Serving in the cabinet has weighed a little heavily on Vince's shoulders and he had the decision on BSkyB's ownership taken off him, but Vince still has some star power about him.
Just look at this autograph which adorns a letter about student finance packages. How many politicians could simply write their first initial? Or is it a combination of a V and a smiley?

I think it's a cross-section of a bedpan, with a small deposit about to make contact. Vince's ironic comment on Nick's gloating, perhaps?

Looks like a picture of a saggy tit to me - quite appropriate in my opinion.

Surely it's a cable in search of a plug.
