pants

The Guardian: Why is Bell's Blair wearing Major's pants?

A splendid article explaining why Steve Bell used to draw his caricature of John Major with Y-fronts, and why the mantle of the pants has now been passed on to Tony Blair. As the article concludes, everything Blair touches is just pants.

Oh, those heady days back in 1997, when we thought we were going to get a government that would champion justice, peace, and equality, and when Steve Bell was drawing Blair with a thong. What were we thinking of? How could we have been so naïve?
