from being printed in England at least...
It took me a while to figure out why.
"BBC Two's Newsnight commissioned an artist to paint this version of a photo showing Conservative leader David Cameron (back row, second left) while a member of the Bullingdon Club, an elite Oxford dining group. The photo can no longer be published."
oooo, tell me more....
The Bullingdon Club is famed for its hard drinking and bad behaviour, and Mr Cameron has always refused to talk about it.
The club's members have become notorious over the years for vandalising restaurants and trashing students' rooms.
Well, well, interesting, but what is the reason?
The Labour Party is thought to have been planning to use the image to attack Mr Cameron at the next general election.
Attack?
...it is potentially far more embarrassing to the Tory leader than the recent story about him taking cannabis at Eton.
Goodness! Whatever for?
Newspaper columnist Peter Hitchens told Newsnight: "I think it tells us something about David Cameron that he doesn't much want us to know, that he is not the ordinary bloke that he claims to be.
"That he is actually much grander and much more aristocratic than he has made out."
Oh my God, it's a class thing! How British. No wonder I didn't get it.
