So that's how Boris Johnson managed to get a job whilst still appearing to be an absolute buffoon.

The fact is that everyone in the Tony Blair picture appears to be trying to make some kind of hidden hand signal. What's disturbing is that Blair's is the only one that is obvious. Personally, I expect subtlety from my Leaders. This is just a reminder that in the "Naughty Boys club", Blair's the only one who will get caught.

b.t.w. I think Boris Johnson's great. It's a shame that we can't have more "colourful" politicians like him.

*slaps self round face* You really do get more right wing as you get older. God Damn It.

For some reason the first picture brings to mind the Python "upper class twit olympics" skit.

The hair... it's so... feathered.

Ah, Oxbridge and public school photos of clubs and drinking societies. The companies who take these must have a ton of blackmail material - there would be a fortune there if they could track the future careers of people they photograph and then leak the negatives to the Sun...

Here's mine.
