The Boy Dave and his cohort are up to their armpits in sawdust and paint at Giribuntu school in Rwanda. Well done those lads!

OK, it was going to be 50 MPs, which by April had come down to a dirty dozen: in fact only eight have coughed up the fare and gone. So what? Celebrate that Dave found two days in his schedule to fit it a bit of classroom decoration, a wreath laying and a speech.

After all, the efforts of these gap-weekenders will see four -- count them, four! -- classrooms added to the school.

And that's probably more than Margaret Thatcher's government managed across the whole of the UK in eleven years. Sphere: Related Content
