When Guido saw the story about monkeys protesting outside Downing Street the immediate thought was, he’s lost it, the second funniest political blogger in Britain has finally cracked. I flicked my browser to Recess Monkey’s website to discover if the parliamentary recess had driven him over the edge – to find out it was actually a bunch of primate-loving animal libbers protesting. (Is primate-loving legal?)

The Monkey‘s blog has a cracker of a story about LibDem MP and serial shagger John Hemming who has advertised a job for a new assistant. The old saying that “when you marry your mistress you create a job vacancy” clearly also obviously applies when you impregnate your secretary.
