Lord Justice Leveson was this afternoon yet again made to look a bumbling buffoon as photographs emerged in certain sections of the press clearly showing the Coalition Cabinet clearly enjoying each other’s company during their group knees-up and beano in Reculver, a beautiful and exclusive resort on the Kentish Riviera.

While something seems to have clearly upset Foreign Secretary Mr Haig (seated in front), young Beaker from the Treasury (2nd from left) seems to be enjoying things far too much. Either that or he’s been stealing candy canes from the seafront sweetshop. Mr David Breakdie-Laws (at front on one leg) seems to be growing some form of butch facial hair, perhaps for a loved-one, and Chancellor Jeffrey (centre in nappy with pipe) does seem to be finally letting his hairs down. Typical of the Prime Minister, Mr Cameron (seen at the back right, top hat at a jaunty, Ronald Coleman-esque angle) took a back seat, allowing his colleagues to take all the flak glory. The photographer informs us that Mr Pickles was away at the time visiting the Fish & Chip shop. Again.

Keith Vaz is 63.
