Nobody will be too surprised to learn that Sir Nick Clegg, tech multi-millionaire, found himself standing alone at a party in Madrid last weekend.
He’s just not everyone’s cup of tea, is he? Peering over his spectacles, glass in hand, he seemed in a reflective mood.
It was a sun-smacked autumn afternoon and several hundred people had gathered in a botanic garden near the city centre for the launch of his Spanish wife Miriam Gonzalez Durantez’s new political party.
Perhaps watching Lady Clegg addressing her supporters stirred in him distant memories of when he was the man of the hour and represented the future.
