You report that the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea intends to fine Peter Mandelson for urinating in the street at 11pm one night last November (Peter Mandelson faces fixed-penalty notice for urinating in public, 10 April). I’m no fan of Mr Mandelson, but on this occasion my sympathies are entirely with him.
I am a year younger than him and, like many men of similar age, what used to be quaintly called my “waterworks” aren’t as robust as they used to be.
