It isn't like a by election in a local constituency, he will be voted in by ballot by other sitting cross benchers. It's almost a "personality" contest

It’s a shame Catherine didn’t attend this event.

Might have been a bit difficult though since she was in Aberdeen today!

Why would you have expected her to attend the event? She does not wear much Dior

She was in Dundee not Aberdeen, and she wasn't there all day.

No but she is patron of the V&A. I didn't realise it was a requirement that you have to wear Dior a lot to attend the event, Sarah Chatto definitely doesn't fit that criteria.

Her mother's dress is a part of the exhibition.

That's great, but it's not Sarah's dress is it. I never said it didn't make sense that Sarah attended either.
Muriel said Catherine doesn't wear a lot of Dior which seemed to me like a need to attend this exhibit, as far as I'm aware neither does Sarah.

Also having Princess Margaret's dress on display, should be another reason Catherine could have gone.

It was nice to see the couple attending, their public outings have become so rare..
