Pox-Raddled Hogarthian Whores & Greedy Little Pimps

Andrew Struttaford on The Corner of NRO excerpts from a London Times story:

[...] Because let’s face it, this Government is doing its best to make our lives about as miserable as any pox-raddled Hogarthian whore’s. Utter the word “middle class” in Whitehall and watch their greedy little pimps’ eyes light up with pound signs. Behold the British middle-classes – a docile, law-abiding army of tax slaves. Hurrah, let’s blow it all on some more social workers in Newcastle.

Isn't Whitehall University where Democrats and RINO's go for 'Theories of Governance' seminars?
