While it is true that Americans get their best political news from comedy shows, I don't think this British comic gives us reliable news.
For instance, I'm sure this issue is not about suspicious old Bob at all. I think it is about suspicious old Squatter or suspect old Rimbaud who surrupticiously just pop in and then drop off the Downs at random shots.
Not meaning to imply that I think P&A is reliable in any predicable way.
