 "My fellow Americans . . ." |
 "Whoops! I keep having fantasies about being Barack O'Bama and able to blow trillion$$$." |
 "MPs' expenses are a serious matter. But hey! It's only taxpayers' cash, right?" |
 "And I need to keep the scroungers sweet or I'd have no mates in Parliament." |
 "It is not my fault that the expenses reforms suggested by Sir John Baker in 2008 were rejected." |
 "It is not my fault that the thieves in my Cabinet voted against having to give receipts with expenses claims." |
 "The whole expenses abuse thing is that David Cameron's fault, anyway." |
 "If he hadn't kept going on and on about it at PMQs, we could have brushed the whole mess under the carpet." |
 "As Prime Minister, I claim nothing at all in expenses." |
 "When I need some cash, I just go down a dark alley and mug a pensioner." |
 "It is right that MPs should be paid £150 every time they turn up for work . . ." |
 ". . . even though they already get 300 grand in salary, expenses and pension." |
 "But fear not, I have a plan to change the face of British Parliamentary expenses." |
 "Which takes cash away from Tories in Outer London and gives it to Labour MPs in the sticks." |
 "Believe me when I tell you all this kerfuffle over abuse of expenses by my MPs is just a very small storm in a tiny teacup. " |
 "Nobody will give a rat's arse about MPs stealing a few millions after the Budget announces a deficit of hundreds of billions." |
 |
 "Oh, crap! I was being so bloody boring, I dropped off to sleep for a minute."
|
 "Some people call me wooden and a poor communicator. They are wrong:" |
 "I can fake sincerity better than Blair any day of the week."
|
 "Now, a word about the economy. If reckless spending got us into one Hell of a mess . . ." |
 ". . . then it is right to assume that more of the same will solve all our problems." |
 "And now a word on honesty . . ." |
 ". . . a subject very close to my heart" |
 "It is right for the Government to lie to the people to keep up their morale." |
 "Especially if it keeps me in my job!" |
 "Most people think they can tell when I'm lying because I have have my mouth open." |
 "But sometimes, I just have my mouth open." |
 |  |
 |
 "Whoops, I dropped off again." |
 "In conclusion, I would like you to search your hearts and answer this question:" |
 "Is this the face of a man you couldn't trust?" |
 "Oooh, aaah, missus!" |
 "Frankie Howerd lives!!" |
