    A break from politics

    By Will last year, at the end of November Leave a comment on this post

    I just bumped into Boris Johnson. The opportunity was too good to miss, so I introduced myself from Cricinfo and, after explaining what field of journalism we were in, he claimed to know us. Which was good of him, even if it’s not true.

    Anyway, it reminded me of my boss’s Cricinfo XI today: politicians in love with cricket. On a similar note, I saw Harriot Harmon on PMQ’s just now wearing what can only be described as a brown leather bikers’ jacket. Blair’s Babes are out; Brown’s Biyatches are in.

    I love Boris Johnson — and is his hair really worse than Matthew Hoggard’s? Is he still running against Ken for mayor of London?
