'I remember,' says Stanley Johnson, father of the London mayor,
"when Boris shot his brother Leo with an airgun..." The conversation-
stopper is delivered with a certain gravitas but the glint of the
devil in his eyes. Two minutes ago, he had said he didn't want to
talk about Boris. But being torn between an amusing line that will
get him in terrible trouble, and being sensible, isn't really a
contest for Stanley. "I had to take Leo to hospital to have the
pellet removed," he recalls. "Although, actually, Leo now maintains
it was he who shot Boris, so I'm not sure I've got this right any
longer..." You can tell Stanley has lived on charm all his life
