[Politics] The beast with two backs (and four chins)

[davywavy]

Well, the newspapers are full of it this morning; Deputy Prime Minister John "Two Shags" Prescott had an affair with his secretary. In some ways this isn't a surprise - Westminster seem to be a hotbed of horseplay and another officer of government having extra-curricular frolics is neither here nor there these days. The real surprise to me is that there was a woman out there willing to rummage under his capacious gut in the hopes of finding wedding tackle under there.

Looking at the history of affairs in Parliament, the old chestnut of power being an aphrodisiac was never more true. What else could explain that these men ever had a sex life of any sort, never mind with women who weren't getting paid for it?



Now, if power is an aphrodisiac we can assume that women are attracted to powerful men and so many of you lot will be harbouring secret lusts for one or another politician. As such, a poll:

[flamma-lupus.livejournal.com]

thats why I stuck you in the dreams, to keep him entertained

[tooth-fairy.livejournal.com]

why am I spending a large proportion of my weekend with you again? :p

[tooth-fairy.livejournal.com]

to keep him entertained?

I am going to hunt you down and murder you horribly

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

The mind boggles.

[tooth-fairy.livejournal.com]

I hope you are going to be entertaining

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

Whatever do you mean?

[medusa-nw.livejournal.com]

By 'other' I mean none of them... I don't find power an aphrodisiac, I find intelligence, a quirky sense of style, good manners, and dare I say it, reasonably good looks an aphrodisiac. Call me shallow, I don't care, I have a boyfriend who ticks all 4 boxes, so ner! :-)

[tooth-fairy.livejournal.com]

well a Barney impression would be nice

presuming that you won't do a Barney impression I would just like to be able to laugh at you

[tooth-fairy.livejournal.com]

I'd say that my boyfriend ticks all 4 boxes as well but Dave will just start calling him a gnome again

Do I remember you saying something about cocktails btw?

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

I refuse to believe that any woman could resist this:

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

The hotel I'm in has a great (if pricey) cocktail bar.

[tooth-fairy.livejournal.com]

I have to go home straight after ARA but seeing as I have to be in a pub at 1pm on Sunday in Manchester I am up for all night drinking on saturday if anyone else is :)

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

Quirky sense of style?

You're kidding!

[tooth-fairy.livejournal.com]
