The most recent addition to UK unemployment figures, former Barclays chief Bob Diamond, has chickened out of hosting a London fundraiser for Mitt Romney — with tickets costing up to $75,000 per head.
Diamond pulled out of the London event last night, several hours before quitting as boss of Barclays. Romney himself is thought to be gracing the bash with his presence, which is scheduled to coincide with the Olympics opening ceremony.

So, Bob is now a Diamond-in-the-rough....
The expanded photo shows Mitt's dog attached to a tow rope.
Oh, c'mon. He needs that jet-ski, having just bought the Atlantic as an anniversary gift for Anne.
(Good one, Anonymous.)
that tandem jet ski doesn't look cheap. sorta like a sail board pic, but a gas guzzler.
How much gas are they burning in those annoying machines?
extra polluting too.
