Boris Johnson, writing in today's Telegraph on the subject of his party's "triumphant and election-winning transformation" and which is resented by the die-hard Tories of old, states:
"They want to hear some of that old-time religion: cut taxes, bang em up, kick em out, crack down on single mums – and all they get is the sweet reason and common sense of the current Opposition."
Now Boris is an extremely well-educated fellow - I take my hat off to anyone who can "do you a dozen Shakespeare sonnets, the whole of Lycidas (186 lines of the thing) and the first 100 lines of the Iliad in Greek" - but I feel forced to question him in two main areas.
Firstly, "sweet reason and common sense of the current Opposition"? - Whaaat? - Where?
Secondly, maybe a little of the "tax-cutting, bang em up, kick em out old-time religion" would not go amiss - eh, Boris?
