Is this the right verb? A cross between movement down the surface of the earth from North Queensferry to the Palace of Westminster and a downwards move by a great one to more the company of more earthly,- even if upper atmosphere,-ones ? Anyway, it happened last week when our former Great Leader visited a Select Committee to lecture them on aid to the developing world, his current big interest. He had been to Africa recently on an in-depth daytrip to a conference in Kampala and seemingly had time to visit a school where he noticed that the one computer wasn't even linked to the internet. He also took the opportunity to mention that it was common for ex Prime Ministers not to visit MP's alleged principle place of play,- the Commons,- much. Maybe too Commons ? Clearly he has not scanned the benches opposite and caught sight of Messrs Hague and Duncan-Smith who have been happy to swallow their pride and contribute extensively and usefully to the proceedings.
Conscious still of his possible interest to less good elements of mankind, he or his security people have had Google Earth delete his North Queensferry home from their maps. This apparently in the interests of his wellbeing. Could anyone really be bothered to go up there and seek him out,- the easy to spot one in the 24/7 suit? Probably not,but never mind. How many Google scanning hits does North Queensferry get anyway?
