Just out of curiosity ...

... Why does UK politics gossip-monger Guido Fawkes have an Irish mobile phone? --

Guido's kidneys ache and every pore of his body still oozes vodka and Red Bull.

No sign of the mobile phone, glasses, or credit cards. (Co-conspirators should contact Guido on the Irish mobile).


UPDATE: This interesting BBC Radio 4 profile points out that Guido's website is hosted in Nevis, as a litigation safeguard.

FURTHER UPDATE: Guido has at various times dropped hints about his Irish allegiances, and in this post makes clear that his daughter is, or is eligible to be, an Irish citizen.

FINAL UPDATE 17 MAY 2007: The only political party of which Guido is a member is the Progressive Democrats.
