About this deal

Mr Madeupname. Sometimes used when referring to an improbable interviewee (often) in a tabloid newspaper article. Numbered lists are usually shorter than stated and include two final entries of "Er..." and "That's it". The robber, however, successfully argued against extradition because he had a Brazilian dependant - a young son, Michael, by his girlfriend Raimunda. Ronnie Biggs' son, Michael, said in a statement: "We, as a family, are very sad with the death of Mr Slipper.

Polly Filler is a female columnist who constantly describes her dealings with put-upon au pairs and her husband "the useless Simon". Her name is a parody of Polyfilla, a British brand of filler typically used to repair small defects in walls and ceilings.The Daily Telegraph newspaper is usually referred to as the "Torygraph" because of its political leaning towards the Conservative Party, [29] [30] [31] and as the Daily Hellograph when satirising its coverage of celebrities. [32] From 1964 until his death, Sir Alec Douglas-Home was referred to as Baillie Vass, after his photograph was mistakenly captioned as such in the Aberdeen Evening Express.

OCLC 999624509. {{ cite book}}: CS1 maint: location missing publisher ( link) Dave Spart is a parody of a stereotypical left-wing agitator who featured in editions of the 1970s and from time to time since (for example, after the 2011 England riots and following the split in Jeremy Corbyn's Shadow Cabinet over the bombing of Syria and military intervention against ISIL). Occasionally, his sister, Deirdre Spart, has offered her views. Private Eye often refers to real-life leftist activists as "Spartists", itself a parody of the left-wing Spartacist League. Ken Livingstone is sometimes lampooned as Ken Leninspart. Dale, Iain (10 May 2010). "In Conversation with Andrew Neil". Total Politics. Archived from the original on 13 June 2013 .

Elizabeth II was regularly referred to as "Brenda" and Charles III as "Brian". Historically, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh was "Keith", Princess Margaret (Brenda's younger sister) was "Yvonne", and Diana, Princess of Wales, was "Cheryl"–a satire on the perceived nature of Royal affairs as a soap opera. [22] [23] Scotland Yard's failure to capture Biggs had been extensively, and gleefully, reported in the press around the world and when the Daily Express tipped Slipper off that he was in Rio the arrangements for the journey were made "in a secrecy and in a great hurry. Slipper joined the Metropolitan Police in 1951. He trained at Hendon Police College, and served briefly as a police constable in Brentford before moving to Chelsea. He undertook traffic duties, and guarded the residence of the US Ambassador in South Kensington.

Robert Maxwell, another perennial litigant against the Eye, was referred to as Cap'n Bob and the Bouncing Czech, [17] [20] the latter apparently conferred by Harold Wilson. [21] Maxwell was a Czech émigré, notably overweight and ebullient (also, a cheque which is returned due to insufficient funds is said to have "bounced"). The defunct Financial Services Authority (FSA), invariably referred to as "The Fundamentally Supine Authority" in reference to its reluctance to act and its seemingly close relationship with the industry it was supposed to regulate, often contrasting its performance with the swift and draconian methods of its United States counterparts.
