“Without reservation”

Those are the telltale words that make me suspect this MP was informed by the Prime Minister’s Office that it was now time for him to apologize for being a bit of a goof. It’s just a hunch, but I suspect Mr. Mayes has now learned that being too eager to side with the boss can be a no-no too.

Mind you, if I’m wrong, throw me in jail.
