ACOBA
Starting his new job as he left his old one.
Without Googling.. Bradford, then MP somewhere south of said city, then further up the greasy pole.The big shock for me on this thread is that Eric Pickles is still alive, is now a Lord and heads up ACOBA.
I remember him for all sorts of reasons I can’t recall.
What did he do to imprint his name in my memory?
Did he have a famous daughter?
Next stop Wikipedia
Edit to add - I may have confused him with Jess Yates.
I think 2 apostrophes would be the most accurate.Crucially the OP is missing an apostrophe.
Is it lying bastard's new job(?)...obviously Johnson,
Or is it lying bastards' new job(?)...in which case it could include Cameron, Osborne et al.
Admittedly, the latter interpretation would mean they have all taken up the same job but still....Worth pondering.
