The best commentary on the entire sorry career of Oswald Mosley was issued by P.G. Wodehouse's immortal flibbertigibbet, Bertie Wooster, when he denouced Sir Roderick Spode -- petty demogogue, leader of the fascist "Black Shorts", and would-be dictator -- in The Code of the Woosters:
"The trouble with you, Spode, is that because you have succeeded in inducing a handful of halfwits to disfigure the London scene by going about in black shorts, you think you're someone. You hear them shouting 'Heil, Spode!' and you imagine it is the Voice of the People. That is where you make your bloomer. What the Voice of the People is saying is: 'Look at that frightful ass Spode swanking about in footer bags! Did you ever in your puff see such a perfect perisher?"
