The Prince of Darkness returns


Once upon a time there was a politician called Peter. He was a genius with the media - he told us he was and who can doubt it? Eventually, he became a cabinet minister but got into trouble over a loan - a big loan to buy a house; he had to resign. But his pal, Tony, soon got him back to cabinet. Unfortunately, he blotted his copybook once again, this time a confused affair over a passport for an Indian businessman. Resignation becomes a habit.

Never mind, his pal, Tony, fixed him up with a nice little number in Brussels. But now, to everyone's surprise, he is to become a lord and a cabinet minister again. The surprise is because everyone thought that he and Gordon hated each other. But, no matter, another few months, and he will undoubtedly be forced to resign once again ...

To be continued.
