Flattering the popinjays

Journalists are letting our leaders get away with murder

AL Kennedy
Tuesday June 14, 2005
The Guardian

Nostalgia's a grand thing. Hearing my former MP, Gorgeous George, berating those bewildered senators took me back. We both hail from Dundee and it was great to hear the old dialect again. Hardly a school day went by without me calling someone a "Trotskyite popinjay", and the cries of "You throw like a big lickspittle" were frequent.
