The symbolic lighting of the Olympic flame couldn't have come at a better time. It's on its way round Greece. Bless them all.

- Then off into the little mits of Boris ...

Burn baby burn. :D

Ah, Boris, the next Conservative leader!

It is a pity that Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson is a great-grandson of Ali Kemal Bey, a liberal Turkish journalist and the interior minister in the government of Damat Ferid Pasha, Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire.
