Nick Assinder reports on the way Charles Kennedy took a small piece of revenge on the media for
the destruction of his leadership. He was due to be campaigning in the Bromley & Chislehurst by-election and journalists flocked to the seat to see him in action, not least because of
his recent comments suggesting a comeback but was unable to make it after attending a family function in Surrey and getting stuck in traffic.

As a substitute Vincent Cable stepped in. The journalists must have been jumping for joy.
As noted in a comment on this blog, Charles Kennedy is due to be on the
Question Time panel tomorrow, as the first major step towards rebuilding his political career. It's certainly a better start than
Have I Got News For You and we'll see how far the comeback goes.
Iain Dale is sceptical due to reports on Kennedy's health, but still groundwork could be laid. If Kennedy can give a better performance than
Ming Campbell gave last month he will leave a lot of Lib Dem members renewing the questions about
whether getting rid of Kennedy was a good move.

That's right. Charles Kennedy missed the Bromley appearance because of a delay following a family event. Hic!
