Jack. Well, I own a house in Belgrave Square, but it is let by the year to Lady Bloxham. Of course, I can get it back whenever I like, at six months’ notice.
Lady Bracknell. Lady Bloxham? I don’t know her.
Jack. Oh, she goes about very little. She is a lady considerably advanced in years.
Lady Bracknell. Ah, nowadays that is no guarantee of respectability of character. What number in Belgrave Square?
Jack. 149.
Lady Bracknell. (Shaking her head.) The unfashionable side. I thought there was something. However, that could easily be altered.
Jack. Do you mean the fashion or the side?
Lady Bracknell. (Sternly.) Both, if necessary, I presume. What are your politics?
Jack. Well, I’m afraid I really have none. I am a Liberal Unionist.
