Aaron Porter was the president of the UK NUS from 2010-2011 during the period of huge student protest. He basically declaimed the protests without thought, then supported them without actually helping at all, then took credit for actions he had actually impeded. He referred to himself as "dithering" during this time. He then proceded to make nice with the Labour party with the intention of, like most NUS presidents past, seamlessly transitioning into a role as an MP. To do an Aaron Porter is then to be a totally ineffective political liberal careerist who wouldn't know politics if it beat him up.

Paltering (gerund or verb) and palter (verb) refer to an extremely common practice of lying and deceiving with true statements. Probably the most common form of paltering (especially among politicians and interviewees on media) is answering a challenging or embarrassing question with a statement which is true but does not address the original question. Frustrated questioners sense the lie, but instead of identifying the paltering, often rephrase and repeat their original question. Strangely, very few know this word and its phenomenon, thinking a lie must be only a misstatement of fact. Check out a long scholarly article on paltering at www.apa.org/pubs/journals/releases/psp-pspi0000081.pdf .
