Recess Monkey R.I.P., the real Honourable Fiend has been missing for months and hasn’t been updated since last year. Alex Hilton who used to run Recess Monkey is now working for the Tribune whilst simultaneously trying to overthrow Julian Brazier’s majority in Canterbury for Labour. Hon. Fiend launched in a wave of commercialism, (one Economist advert), found out that it don’t pay. Polidex is also no more – although it was so bug ridden and unrealistic that its probably best dead.

Guido plans to enjoy himself taking the piss out of parliament for some time yet. Maybe the Economist should instead advertise here?
