AN UPPER CLASS TWIT

On Henry Conway, 25 year-old son of disgraced MP Derek Conway: "We might reasonably have hoped that, having being exposed as receiving £32,000 in parliamentary allowances while an undergraduate at Cambridge, he might have felt chastened and laid low. The more naive among us might even have hoped he would get a proper job, with a view to paying back some of the taxpayer's money. But, no. Last month Conway - who once threw a party called "F*** off I'm rich" - arrived at Mahiki, a naff London cocktail bar favoured by Prince William and Harry, in a horse-drawn carriage and dressed as a Regency dandy."
