A story has come out that could mean a big change for Boris Johnson, Tory MP for Henley and Shadow Minister for Higher Jinks. In fact, the truth is incredibly dirty. If this gets out, it could be the end of his career. But he'll do all right; from all reports, the man really knows how to use his head. Using the skills taught me by the inimitable (perhaps) Mirror, I have pieced together parts of a stunning whole. Below are actual quotes from Johnson himself, a pseudonymous poster on his blog, and some excerpts from an article on the whole sorry affair in the Telegraph.

— —– was chanting "We want Boris" as he limbered up, waving his arms like a slightly rusty blond helicopter. The cheers grew and the cry of "Boris, Boris" became irresistible.

"I haven't p—-d since I was 18."

On he bounced, to raucous celebration.

The sight of the mop-haired MP for Henley's head powering into ——————'s groin brought a roar…

After…Boris, lager in hand, said: "I was going for the ball with my head, which I understand is a legitimate move."

"I felt an enormous sense of achievement every time I actually touched the ball."

He insists that his m———s are in good working order but his chances of getting the call from Carole Caplin are slim.

"That was a lot of fun," said Boris. "I rather fancy doing it all over again. Do you think they will let me?"

Online sources tell raincoaster chances are good. One remark from a grateful fan:

your tackle last night made my life…Thanks Boris!!

This was followed quickly by fears of tabloid coverage:

Oh lord, I'm inadvertently giving the News of the World about all they need for a Bozza cover story.

I'll be more careful when analysing Johnson's tackle in future.

So perhaps his career as MP for Henley and Shadow Minister for Higher Jinks is over, but could this be the start of a new one? Say, Minister of State for Health Services?

Read on for a lovely shot of Johnson's tackle.
