Re: Alan Johnson does a runner
It was Alan Johnsons wife who had been playing the 'away' game.
I didn't really like the guy, felt he had risen to the level of his incompetence, but I sort of feel a bit sorry for him.......it can't be much fun to be cuckolded by your own security officer.

I have to say Margaret I actually had some empathy for the guy, okay don't like him as a politician, but its bad enough when your marriage is on the rocks without it being played out on the front page of the Red Tops, I know been there and got the T-Shirt

Didn't he tell them he was a hamburger? Could be wrong.....it is a long time ago now, and the memory isn't quite as sharp.
