"Imma bring out the parliamentary bong"


Beautiful words.

[DJGallagher]

This show paints Boris in a better light than any media interview or Parlimentary session these days - not once here does he stagger over his own words.

This is very accurate, I was at uni during the tuition fee increase and noticed a very different mindset from the new students who had to pay 9k. Needless to say the students that paid 3.3k per year partied harder.
