Allegations of a new Labour smear campaign

The Telegraph reports that:
"Alistair Darling is unlikely to be the only one to have the “forces of Hell” unleashed against him by No 10 Downing Street. Mandrake hears that Samantha Cameron is to be the new target of a Labour smear campaign.

“Briefing against her has already begun,” discloses my man in Gordon Brown’s bunker.

Astonishingly, Labour officials claim that David Cameron’s wife, who transformed the fortunes of the Mayfair stationer Smythson while raising three children, is “lazy”.

The plan is to compare Mrs Cameron, 38, unflatteringly with Sarah Brown, 46.

“Much will be made of Sarah’s charity work and journalists will be encouraged to make comparisons with the amount of work that Mrs Cameron does for charity,” says my mole.

Mrs Brown, who gave up her job as a public relations executive when she was expecting her first child, has taken an increasingly prominent political role since the Prime Minister’s standing plunged in the opinion polls.

This week, she appeared on GMTV to defend her “hero” against allegations of bullying."
I hope this is not true but if it is then it shows the lengths that some elements at or near the top of the Labour government are prepared to go to in order to keep hold of power. This general election campaign is going to be the dirtiest in British history and Guido Fawkes thinks the announcement may come any day now...

If true, I think it would backfire on Labour.
And no amount of spinning will make Sarah better-looking than Samantha !
