Quote of the day: Boris' bizarre bazaar

Barely hours after its inception, BoJo was regaling the press with his colourful metaphor for the coalition:

“They’ve created a mongrel breed. It’s a kind of cross between a bulldog and a Chihuahua. And like all mongrel breeds I think it will have a great deal of hybrid vigour and strength.”

And it seems his imagination hasn’t yet tired, likening the new government to “a bazaar” at the Institute of Directors last night:

“I’ll swap you a married couples allowance for Trident; human rights act for an immigration amnesty”

Please, someone put him us out of his misery.
