David Cameron Bullingdon photo "dropped out of circulation"

Sunday 13th July 2008 · 2 Comments

From this week’s Economist:

“…[David Cameron], Mr Osborne and Mayor Johnson, the three most prominent Tories in the land, were all members of the Bullingdon Club, an infamously elitist and rowdy Oxford dining club. (A photo of Mr Cameron and his clubmates in waistcoat and tails has mysteriously dropped out of circulation.)

Well, if The Economist are unable to find the photo, I’m more than happy to oblige:

David Cameron Bullingdon

    AIUI there was no mystery at all – the photograph’s copyright holder had decided it wasn’t available for publication. Newsnight commissioned a reproduction.

    You’d sort of expect The Economist to know that.

    “I like the sound of breaking glass”

    is beginning to sound like the boy George’s credibility. If the fragrant Rothschild is lying, George isn’t, and the British Empire is safe. But why would Rothschild commit such a huge public lie? Monstrous vain pique at a breach of society etiquette, and nothing more? If so, then Osbourne & Pals become an even more despicable crew of back-stabbing vermin than we ever imagined, and their constant scrutiny and celebration become a grim but socially essential duty in the run-up to a general election.
