Cor Blimey!

The wily old fox Nick Robinson just summed it up in his usual succint way on the World at One.
'Cor Blimey!' he said.

Politician resigns on matter of principle!

Shadow Home Secretary to fight his seat as an independent and as a champion of human rights and civil liberties.

A TORY politician?

And this on the day after those natural allies Gordon Brown and Anne Widdecombe (yes, THAT Anne Widdecombe) oh, and lets not forget the DUP conspire together (without making ANY sort of a deal) to force through a contentious piece of legislation in the face of stiff opposition from back benchers.

Never has Tom Lehrer's observation been more apt. Satire is officially dead.

Beat that Private Eye!
