	New Statesman - Quiffs are out; in come the bits of rough
		Kenneth Clarke and Gwyneth Dunwoody, both grandly overweight and consistently crumpled, one over 60, the other soon to be over 70, have proved themselves, in the last torrid week of the summer session of parliament, more than a match for their younger, smoother colleagues.
		Clarke, the new frontrunner in the Tory leadership race, and Dunwoody, reinstated after a fierce battle to the chairmanship of the transport select committee, have more in common than first meets the eye.
		But while Dunwoody may not be popular, she is respected, and her sacking suggested that, in its second term, this government was going to be even more hardline on dissent than it was in its first.

	Christian Wolmar :: Gwynethâs grillings generate a lot of heat but little light
		Gwyneth Dunwoody, that redoutable chairman of the Commons Transport Committee, has just won Channel 4âs Backbencher of the Year award for her grilling of transport ministers and various other assorted players in the industry.
		Covering the hearings of her committee is, indeed, one of the regular treats for transport journalists.
		She plays to the crowd and is often highly entertaining, but her committee lacks the rigour that might come of a chairman who was playing a longer-term game.
