Lord Bonkers' Diary: “One of the bonobos has taken over for the time being”

Lord Bonkers brings us the latest news from Ed Davey's listening tour.

Monday

I telephone Cupar to see how Davey is getting on at the zoo:  he began work there this morning. “I’m afraid I’ve already had to let him go,” replies the Head Keeper. “One of the bonobos has taken over for the time being.”

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