NEWS The Conservative party has launched an online store selling politics-related books in a bid to boost party funds. However, supporters of the Tory party may be stunned to hear that the site will be well stocked with literature from the Labour party. Among the Labour MP authors enjoying a sales boost from the Tory site are David Blunkett, Peter Mandelson and outspoken back-bencher Tony Banks. Labour MP Paul Flynn, whose book Commons Knowledge: How to be a Backbencher is also available via the site, told ePolitix.com: "I am delighted to know that my work is helping a party that find themselves in such an unfortunate position. They are a far more deserving case than I am." See http://www.shop.conservatives.com.
