Come On Then, If You Think You Are Hard Enough

Basher Davis is advertising for a new staff member. He has a high-turnover of staff. The job specification requires that candidates are "calm under pressure". An understatement...

the first letters of the bullet points in the ad are an anagram of "HARASSESS CN"

You are a very sad and lonely person - but strangely sensible in that you have chosen to remain anonymous.

that's the only way you can communicate with the outside world in Basher's bunker - via coded messages!

Any mention in the job description of a requirement to be skilled in the arts pf unarmed combat and silent killing? Very necessary in Westminster, I'd guess.

I've found these skills quite useful in the Tesco checkout riots, too. Mrs Rogue Trolley always gives me a run for my money, though. Still got the scars from the last encounter near the Baked Beans.

Two men who now how to handle themselves are available - the two Johns, Reid and Prescott. Coming up on the rails in Mandelson, who according to Campbell can fling a punch or two.

That is so Davis himself can freely and constantly go off on one! So it is his pressue - otherwise the job is most probably to massage the ego. No - I don't mean THAT!

Ms Lewinsky need NOT apply

That Conrad Black could be looking for a new job, well in about twenty years. It would prove how much the Tory Party has changed, employing an ex-con.

Guido, I've heard some rumours about the Ealing Southall by-election and I'd like you to investigate.

Apparently, the Tory candidate's father was a big supporter of Apartheid, the Lib Dem candidate's a eunuch and the Labour candidate's got six wives ...

Is DD so bad tempered because he likes dishing it out, or is that he's got a lot to do and won't stand incompetents gladly?

Any inside info out there?

I don't suppose anyone has tried the time-tested remedy for a vicious boss: simply drugging the bastard.
