Nadine Dorries' very vocal condemnations of the Lib Dems' influence on the Coalition have won her many fans among grassroots Tories.
But it looks like she's also won praise from another quarter: the Lib Dems themselves. They are delighted with her prominent claims that they are acting as a brake on some true blue Tory plans.
After her attacks on the Clegg effect in PMQs a while back - and this week during the UQ on the Lansley Bill - the Lib Dem strategy chief Richard Reeves has now decided it's time for a compliment.
I'm told Reeves has sent Nadine a lovely bunch of 'grey rose' flowers to her Commons office.
The message reads:
"Dear Nadine, With many thanks for all your excellent work in the House!
Richard Reeves
Director of Strategy to the DPM"
Such a shame it wasn't a couple of weeks back. Then I could have said they were Valentines....
UPDATE. Nadine has now tweeted a pic of the lovely big bunch:

She said: "Everyone who has come into my office to look at 'those' flowers has said the same thing: 'that's weird'.
Another Tory joked to me that it's a good job the new stalking law isn't on the statute books....
