Is anybody really surprised by this? ‘Security arrangements’ - pah.
What our Tone was really concerned about is the simple truth that he wouldn’t have been able to stop smiling during the funeral service!
Talk about two-faced! The only way he could be any happier is if the nameplate on the casket read “Brown” instead of “Cook”
