Shapps: ‘I’ll be jealous if the PM gets a Nando’s black card’

David Cameron’s trip to fast food chain Nando’s last night has caused a stir, with countless ‘selfies’ of the peri-peri PM appearing online before anyone could even whisper ‘cynical PR stunt’. He’s not the only politician who’s a fan of the Portuguese chicken chain. It’s practically a second office for the Tory party chairman, who conducts meetings and lunches in its Victoria branch. Grant Shapps tells Mr S that he ‘will be jealous if the PM gets a Black Card’. The loyalty card is given to famous customers allowing them to eat for free. Though it seems Shapps’ loyalty is split: Grant Shapps pictured lovin' it. Culture Minister Ed Vaizey loves McDonalds so much he even makes his own: vaizeyburger Of course, it’s not just Tories who are ‘Lovin’ it’. Nick Clegg is a Maccy D’s man according to his LBC phone in. Keeping a rare united front with Vince Cable: vinceburger

But no such down market action for the Labour leader.
