摘要

Ushering Bagehot into his shiny, inelegant Thames-side of- fice, Boris Johnson says he will always have time for The Economist. We ran his first piece, he reveals-a "world scoop", no less. For the next few minutes your columnist-aware that he has been promised only 15 with the mayor of London-tries to steer him off the topic of his first professional experience, and fails. An amusing story is to Mr Johnson as an oasis to a thirsty camel. Fresh out of Eton, he had wangled an internship on this newspaper, he says, because "about three of my uncles" (in fact, two) were writing for it. This is a curious start to a conversation about privilege and social mobility, a subject Mr Johnson has recently been opining on, as he appears suddenly to appreciate. "It was a disgraceful example of, umm..." he blusters, then resumes the gallop. "The piece was about a plan for a third, no, second, either second or third, bridge over the Bosphorus, and not since Xerxes or Darius had there been, you know, blablafishcakes, and they put it in! My first published piece!" he cries. Then comes the inevitable addendum: "It did, I'm afraid, contain at least one glaring factual inaccuracy..."
