Poor old Johnny two jags. He's been on the receiving end of a lot of criticisim this last couple of weeks... but it seems whatever he does, he just can't win.
When photographed playing Croquet he was lambasted by the lefty press for 'not being in touch with his constituents' and 'betraying his working class roots', whilst the right wing press were horrified that he 'was improperly attired and not wearing a jacket'.
So, while most of the UK struggles by own one home, Johnny has agreed to cut down from three to two. Aaaah.
And in the background, the wolves are gathering and suggesting that were he to give up his position as deputy prime minister, they would throw their hats in the ring as candidates.... that's politics for you.
But I can't see why he would give up this post (voluntarily at least) as he doesn't have anything else to do now does he?
Unless you count standing behind Toni keeping the knives out of his back as a real job.
