No Rock And Roll Fun

BORIS BIFFS MAGIC: Boris Johnson is, of course, to the Tory Party what the Rolo McFlurry is to McDonalds: it's very easy to start to feel warm feelings towards the institution when you enjoy something light and fluffy its managed to produce, and you forget that it's an evil empire led by a callous clown. Anyway, Boris has been appointed Conservative arts spokesperson, and within a couple of minutes of getting the post, was already making policy without clearing it through central office first:

"I am going to open up the bandwidth, so there is much more freedom on the radio stations. I am going to reduce some of the stuff allocated to the Pentagon, so you can get the Rolling Stones in Oxfordshire. I am fed up with just listening to treacly old Magic."
