Also in trouble for his foul-smelling emissions was 21-year-old Tory council candidate, Conor Burns, said to be a close friend of boyish Social Security Secretary Peter Lilley. The Dishonours Committee has clubbed together to provide him with a Fun-Packed Weekend for Two at the Pied-a-Terre of a Cabinet Minister of His Choice, for calling barrackers at a university election meeting "spastics" and "a hunchback". He was "goaded" into such indiscretions, Burns explained, adding: "I immediately apologised".
