Kelvin takes oath

He may not have been entirely serious in setting up the Red Mist Party after failing in his quest to be elected as a local councillor, or in launching an aborted challenge against David Davis on the BBC's Today programme. But former Sun editor Kelvin MacKenzie was very earnest when he married yesterday for the second time.

Making an honest man of 61-year-old Mr MacKenzie was Sarah McLean , 15 years his junior, and a corporate HR director in the UK operations of McGraw-Hill, the US publishing group which also owns Standard & Poor's, the ratings agency.

Among the guests at the nuptials, held in Sunningdale, Berkshire, were long-time friend and the head of media investment banking at Jefferies, Jonnie Goodwin , radio presenter Nick Ferrari , as well as The Sun's current editor, Rebekah Wade .
