Peter Mandelson takes to the Mirror's TV review column to denounce the BBC's "cynical" drama portrayal of recent Labour history, The Project.

The leading New Labour spinner demands to know why Britain has not got its own version of the West Wing and he expresses disappointment in the film's casting. "Fans of Alastair Campbell would have been disappointed that there is no-one playing him (or me for that matter)," he writes.
