    I really, really could not get behind the premise that the PM of the UK would fuck a pig to save a princess.

    In the real world, it would have been “we do not make deals with terrorists” and that would be that, ratings be damned. Like holy shit, did he start with a completely unrealistic premise.

      Edit: complete fabrication be here.

      The “do horrible thing to save someone” story, yeah, maybe.

      But the pig thing had been going around for years about the then/former prime minister. Some kind of hazing at eton or wherever those posh folks go. The episode was just a reference to that.
