No, it cant be. Not the man who was once only a small miracle away from becoming British Prime Minister, the man who had ambitions to work as a bridge across the Atlantic?
It is the very same desperate times calls for desperate measures and, if IDS is spending his dotage hanging around gents toilets, its not for the same reason as most of his erstwhile Tory colleagues.
