Paper Monitor

10:54 UK time, Friday, 23 December 2011

A service highlighting the richness of the daily press.

There are some parties you're glad you weren't invited to.

Take the Nazi-themed stag party that is keeping Tory MP Aidan Burley in the headlines. According to today's Times, French prosecutors have now opened an inquiry into the event held at the ski resort of Val Thorens, where the groom dressed in a replica SS uniform. This is after a pressure group accused the partygoers of inciting racial hatred and glorifying crimes against humanity.

Mr Burley, who attended the party but did not dress up, has already been dismissed from his position as parliamentary private secretary to the Transport Secretary.

Yep, glad that invite got lost in the post.

Then there are other shindigs you can only dream of attending.

Yesterday the papers revelled in who had danced the night away at what seems to have been the party of the year at a swanky London club on Wednesday. Prince Harry, David Beckham, James Corden, to name a few.

Now the Daily Mirror reveals that . As one onlooker quite rightly commented:

It was a really unusual and random group of revellers."

Harry reportedly asked Nancy for tango lessons. Er, did he watch Strictly Come Dancing this year? A source tells the Mirror she "became unusually shy and declined to take the third in line to the throne for a twirl".

Shame. Would have paid good money to see that.

Alas for your humble columnist, it was a case of name's not down, not coming in. The cheek, don't you know who Paper Monitor is!
