The Duke -- his aged grand-sire -- bore
The shame till he could bear no more.
He rallied his declining powers,
Summoned the youth to Brackley Towers,
And bitterly addressed him thus--
"Sir! you have disappointed us!
We had intended you to be
The next Prime Minister but three:
The stocks were sold; the Press was squared:
The Middle Class was quite prepared.
But as it is! . . . My language fails!
Go out and govern New South Wales!"

The Aged Patriot groaned and died:
And gracious! how Lord Lundy cried!

I don't think anyone considers him, or indeed any politician, a saint, but dishonourable behaviour was thwarted and his other achievements certainly still make him best available option for his present position.

Boris; the best available option for his present position?

I would think that there are close to 60 million people in the UK who would be better suited to the position.

great the gullivistas can have a party!

[sp1814]

What on earth are ‘gullivistas’???

Something to do with Jonathan Swift?

I do the Telegraph cryptic crossword every day so I’m quite good at lateral thinking - but I’m stumped.

Well they would, wouldn't they? No news here, move on. :)

[Hymie]

More Tory sleaze – nothing new to see here, move along.

Boris did not want a Tax payer funded job for his wife. It was for his Mistress. He is very fond of giving his lovers tax payers money, he also gave Jennifer Arcuri £26,000 when he was Mayor of London. Wonder what else he gave them.

[Hymie]

I think you will find that it was actually £126,000 of our money that Boris gave his lover, when mayor of London.

He then lied about the woman being his lover in an enquiry into the matter – Standard Operating Procedure for Boris.
