Readers of the ol’ raincoaster blog will be familiar by now with the jolly sight of author, columnist, politician and television personality Boris Johnson, the simultaneously elegant and devastating revenge of the gods upon the legended dignity of the British Tory Party.
He’s a photoeditor’s delight, rumpled suit accessorized with bike clips, rips, stains of uncertain origin, or pockets lumpy from collections of mysterious objects, with his blond hair in trademark Van de Graaff style, and, generally, a backdrop of pitchfork-wielding, outraged natives.
