Lord Bonkers' Diary: The choirboys' rifle practice

Tuesday

Mind you, Farron can be Rather Hard Work. This morning, when I pass by St Asquith’s to make sure that no more gargoyles have fallen, he stops me to ask why I insist the choirboys have rifle practice every week.

What a question! He wouldn’t be asking it if a snap by-election were called. I cast a soulful look towards the country west of Marston Trussell, where the Revd Hughes is probably even now simmering gently, surrounded by onions and bouquet garni.

Lord Bonkers was Liberal MP for Rutland South West 1906-10.
