I wonder if Rory Stewart (Balliol College) can save 🇬🇧 from Johnson (Balliol College), Rees-Mogg (Balliol College) & Cressida Dick (Balliol College) with help from Yvette Cooper (Balliol College).

Brendan (Balliol College) - see, we’re a mixed bunch 🤦🏻‍♂️)

I can only apologise.
Oh and Ghislaine. Argh
Very relieved to be corrected by @john3ners and others - the Dickensian undertaker wasn’t at Balliol it was his dad (yeah, still not great I know).

On the plus side we also had Healey, Heath, Jenkins and Graham Greene & Aldous Huxley and, best of all, Christopher Hitchens.
Ironically Balliol was always known as a left wing hothouse of rebellion.
Not sure what went wrong really.

More intelligent musings from the charming Tory MP for Stoke.
Be quite good to have MPs who don’t need to be breathalysed before they appear in public.

For the ‘party of law and order’, they didn’t half giggle, roar and bray a lot in Parliament earlier, just a day after their PM and his top cabal of advisors were literally placed under formal investigation by the police.

I think they’re actually sick.

I’m very happy for a lawyer to be a leader as he might even obey the law.

Lawyer or twice sacked right wing journalist for best leadership material? Tricky one 🤔

Who amongst us hasn’t invited our interior designer in for birthday cake and nibbles during an illegal social gathering whilst she was busy installing gold wallpaper paid for by a political donor, the details of which we told our ethics advisor we had forgotten.

Remember how shocked and furious he was when he heard there had been, er, one party. 🤦🏻‍♂️

“To my great surprise, suddenly I found myself blowing out a number of candles in what appeared to be a spontaneous birthday party arranged by my wife, at which our interior designer happened to be present.”
She’s going to make it worse isn’t she.
He only ever seems to stay at a party for ten minutes, it’s so rude.

2017, and still completely correct. It’s time for some grown ups.

Always astounding that people can’t simultaneously agree with Blair on Brexit and disagree with him on Iraq at the same time.
