 | Remember Bob Ney? Englanders in the audience may take a bit of reminding. Remember freedom fries? The moment where you realised that the most powerful military the world had ever seen was directed by people who felt that a nation that had failed to fall in line with them must be punished by having its name removed from the canteen blackboards of America. And maybe weed a tiny bit in your pants.
Well, Bob Ney was the mastermind of the plot to change the name of French fries to freedom fries, rather than the more accurate "shit chips". And now, Bob Ney is back in the news, having elected not to seek re-election in order to concentrate on allegations that he is just another nasty, sweaty, corrupt like porker.
When your part no longer feels that you are likely to defend your incumbency against a challenger called Zack Space (man of molybdenum!), you are truly banjaxed.
Goodbye, Mister Chips.
