“The tongue he’s got is pure gold, the breast is pure brass; The feet are pure clay – and watch out for the arse.”
Writing a post on how disgraceful it is to see the punditry following after Mandelson like the Pied Piper’s rats, I remembered Jake Thackray’s marvellous song “The Bull”, which seems to suit Mandelson to the ground.
There isn’t a YouTube video of the song (I’m working to rectify this gross oversight) There is Now! but in lieu of that you can always read the lyrics to this glorious masterpiece of political satire.
