Whoes a Messy Polly? Crusading MP Tam Dalyell stretched out a hand to help the worlds parrots yesterday. And what did he get for his trouble? A mucky suit, thates what.

Labours talkative Tam, launching a parrot conservation campaign, glared at the squawking bird as though at Margaret Thatcher, and asked: Doesn t it remind you of someone? Whos a Messy Polly?

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful print from October 1989, we witness the unexpected encounter between crusading MP Tam Dalyell and a mischievous cockatoo. As Tam stretches out his hand to help the world's parrots, little did he know that he would end up with a mucky suit as a souvenir of his noble endeavor. The image captures the moment when the cheeky cockatoo perches on Tam's arm in London, leaving an unmistakable mark that doesn't quite match his elegant pinstripes. With a comical expression on his face, Tam gazes at the squawking bird as if it were none other than Margaret Thatcher herself. Perhaps he couldn't help but draw parallels between their messy tendencies. Amidst all the humor and cuteness of this scene lies a deeper message: our efforts to protect endangered species often come with unexpected challenges and sacrifices. Despite getting dirty in pursuit of his cause, Labour's talkative Tam remains undeterred in launching a parrot conservation campaign. This photograph encapsulates not only an amusing anecdote but also reflects upon our complex relationship with animals and politics. It serves as a reminder that even those fighting for important causes can find themselves caught off guard by unforeseen circumstances – just like poor Tam Dalyell and his encounter with "Messy Polly.
