An excellent article by Boris Johnson in the Telegraph today. For those of you outside the UK , Boris Johnson is a very well known Conservative politician, who is presently Mayor of London. He was elected Mayor as much to his owm surprise as that of many others, but I suspect he will be a proper politician in years to come. ( The Mayor of London is a bit of a joke appointment with no real powers, just my opinion, but shared by others I reckon)
He cannot of course advocate the return of corporal punishment, but there are some decent memories of it in the article. This includes a reference to the Jocari Bat,
Good old Boris’s sister, Rachel Johnson,is a journalist on The Sunday Times and has also related how she was slippered when she was at prep school. There is an account of this on , I think, Spanking Facts and Research, though this has had a few problems so I’m not sure if all the facts are still there.
