Quite possibly the most boring, aimless, pointless individual ever to be elected leader of any British
political party. His becoming leader of the
Conservatives led to there being, for
the first time in history, no waxwork made of the official leader of the opposition. Apparently they agreed he was a total non-entity and couldn't be bothered to make a waxwork of him. I read somewhere a cardboard cut-out of IDS was made. It probably had more charisma than he did.
