The BBC's live coverage posted this earlier:
One minister who has not lost his sense of humour during the hectic campaigning is Lord Mandelson, the BBC's Iain Watson reports from the prime minister's train. He is approached by a passenger who asks him to sign her copy of the now Lib Dem-supporting Guardian for her "friend". He complies with her wishes and signs it, "Peter Mandelson pp The Dark Lord". Asked what she does she replies she works for the polling company Mori, but doesn't offend Lord Mandelson by pointing to Labour's current ratings.
As I was writing this, they posted:
"There would be a BBQ summer under a Conservative government every year," David Cameron jokes with a butcher after asking about BBQ sales. He is mixing with shoppers at a Saturday market in Woodstock, Oxfordshire, buying Banbury cake and purple sprouting broccoli.
But Dave, think of the carbon! I admit it's not too bad if people have gas barbecues (but it's just not the same as cooking with charcoal - "real" charcoal, also commonly known as "chunk charcoal," doesn't have the nasty additives, and burning it is carbon neutral, although it often comes from thousands of miles (or even multiple continents) away, which negates some of its carbon benefits).
