Michael Laugesen is in his mid-fortiesand leader of the Labour party,where he has made a career of beingin the right place at the right time. He

is a pragmatic power-monger.

Laugesen runs his panty like a busi-ness, whene he has quickly and ef-ficiently r eplaced the old panty appa-natus, but this has given him pr oblemsbolh in and out of the party. Neither-Laugesen's appeanance non his be-

havioun matches the Labour par ty'sclassic values, though he does what he

can to disguise his typically chauvinis-tic tr^aiLs when in the public eye.

Laugesen neven for^gives a gr^udge

and takes nevenge with gneat pleas-une. But he is a man unden pnessune

as the Laboun panty has lost seatsin the last two elections. Ther efonemone than even the motto "the endsjustìfy the means." He is, with goodneason, a man to be feaned.
