UN Secretary General Is ‘Spanky Banky’ Moon, Says Kevin Rudd

DIPLOMATIC nicknames: Kevin Rudd on Ban-Ki Moon:

Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd and his office privately referred to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon as “Spanky Banky” according to a new book.

He once called Kenneth Clarke “A pudgy puffball.” As for Douglas Hurd, he said he “might as well have a corncob up his arse”. While he dismissed Michael Heseltine as the kind of person “who bought his own furniture”.

Spotter: Tim Blair
