According to The Huffington Post, Aidan Burley, the genius behind the Nazi-themed stag party for which his pal, Mark Fournier, later copped a 1,500 Euro fine from a French court, is to step down at the next general election. Burley escaped a fine and got nothing more a light tap on the bum after a Tory party internal inquiry found him guilty of ‘hi-jinx’. Now he will be free to spend more time practising his goose-step.
Jessica Elgot writes:
Burley said in a statement: “After a difficult time I have decided to announce I will stand down at the next general election.
“I will continue to work for the people of Cannock Chase until that election, and look forward to supporting my successor, as soon as he or she is selected, to ensure that Labour have no chance of re-taking this seat.
“It was a wonderful surprise to win the seat of Cannock Chase in May 2010 with the biggest swing in the country and it has been a huge privilege to represent the people of Cannock Chase in Parliament over the past four years.
“I am grateful to all those who voted for me and supported our campaign which led to our famous victory.”
Does this mean he’ll be heading back to Hammersmith and Fulham, where he was once a councillor? I hope not. This borough has enough Tory headbangers as it is.
Bye, bye, Burley.
Burley, bye, bye!
Guy Debord's Cat 
As far as we up here are concerned, you can have the little so-and-so back, and good riddance to very bad rubbish.
Can’t we just send him to South Georgia or even better, North Rona?
It’s still too close (I checked, to make sure I wasn’t wrong), and probably covered with lovely wild life. I’d suggest the South Pole, but I wouldn’t wish him on penguins either. On the plus side, his retired PR mom just moaned to a B’ham newspaper it was such a shame her brilliant son’s promising political career had to end so abruptly and unjustifiably. But hey, I bet you they’ll find him a nice cushy corner.
