Kissing or gossiping?

There were a couple of great lines in today's PMQ's.

Speaker John Bercow mentioning that he might have to ring a helpline if he couldn't bring the house to order and David Cameron commenting on the continued whispering between Brown an his chancellor during questions.

note that Darling was placed strategically very close to his boss.

Benedict Brogan notes at Three Line whip that

When Dave said Gordon Brown and Alistair Darling were getting so close they were nearly kissing, the cut-away showed the PM turn to the Chancellor with that pursed lips thing he does, and for a sec it looked like he was about to peck him. Certainly, if you wanted evidence of how badly Jeff Randall’s great hit has rocked the machine, it was there in front of us, with Mr Darling sitting cheek to cheek with his “friend” for PMQs and the two doing that “see us, see how matey we are?” panto of smiles and shared jokes. Yeah, right.
