Looking at his fireworks, he said to the other two, “are you National or Labour?” “National Party,” piped up one Immediately. “Gee, righto, we can go to ‘Mister’ Sir Alien’s party,” and away they trudged to La Signy Farm, where Miss Elizabeth Allen was entertaining about 150 members and friends of the Junior National Party to a bonfire.
