You'd have liked my cousin in his builder years, then: bearded, carried a copy of The Guardian and smoked Disque Bleu

This weary but chipper old geezer rocks up with freshly washed white bib and braces, fag in mouth, copy of the DM under his arm. After a while he took a break (brought his own flask) and we chatted for few minutes, not least about his amusement at Littlejohn's column in the paper that day. Here was the classic, hard working bloke lapping up a Tory paper and the digs about benefits cheats (I paid him cash in hand, of course), immigrants etc, all the usual bollocks about lesser people getting one over on the honest, eternally victimised, hard working man. Tapping into resentment that someone, somewhere is getting the better of YOU reader, is what has made Littlejohn a millionaire.Didn't Dacre once say that he wanted Mail headlines to make their readers afraid, so that they'd retreat to the past?
Today, even the upper echelons of the civil service treat Cabinet members with overt contempt.

Why might that be? Doesn’t seem to be a problem for Ben Wallace over at defence at this difficult time.

Boris Johnson could well have introduced a policy like this in the run up to the last election even though he didn't have the numbers to get it passed. In that situation would Littlejohn have been happy to see millions of pounds wasted on a policy that was very unlikely to become law.
