What a delightful collection of over-privileged chinless inbreds. This is the annual photograph of the Bullingdon Club taken in 1992 just before they retired to a private room to wank each other off.An official ultra-exclusive "dining" club of Oxford Univeristy, the Bullingdon exists to offer it's members an opportunity to hire out private rooms so they can get very pissed and then smash the place up, safe in the knowledge that their parents are so wealthy as to make them above the law and therefore not accountable for their actions. About 150 years ago it was also a cricket club, but I think they found the cricket got in the way of the smashing things up.
Arguably, the most arrogant looking toff in this picture is the chap numbered 1. Unfortunately for us, that's George Osbourne - the Shadow Chancellor. Five years previous David Cameron and Boris Johnson appeared in a similar picture. It's comforting that in a couple of years the three most powerful men in this country: the Prime Minister, Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Mayor of London will all have been members of a club which exists specifically for the purpose of destroying things without accountability.

Nothing better than having someone in touch with the common man! That said, would you prefer a US Schwarzeneger figure instead?
