Dan Hannan Card
Roger Helmer Card
Geoffrey Van Orden Card
Sir Robert Atkins Card
There is a theory that there is no such thing as bad publicity. I am not so sure.
In a week of conference discussions where Europe was, once again, a prominent issue for the Conservatives, the MEP group had decided to give away a stack of playing cards with their faces on the cards, so that we can all learn their names as we play poker. I seem to remember the Americans doing something similar so their troops could learn to recognise the top Iraqi’s during the initial invasion a few years ago.
However, these things are never quite as thought through as you might expect.
It seems that Roger Helmer and Dan Hannan are a pair of jokers (perhaps not too surprising, that) and Geoffrey Van Orden is the Jack of Hearts (a little gossip we should know about?). Sir Robert Atkins managed a more sombre tone, at least.
PS – apologies for the quality of the images, but I took the pictures with my phone!
