Daily Quote: hellfire preacher
Michael White uses the analogy to tell us what they are like:
If Mrs Thatcher was matron and John Major that nice bus conductor on the No 63, Tony Blair was an upmarket estate agent. But Brown is a hellfire preacher whose media handlers have told him to go easy on the hellfire stuff because it reduces the Sunday collection.
matron: A woman who acts as a supervisor or monitor in a public institution, such as a school, hospital, or prison.
hellfire: Portending future disaster
