Not a pun as such...
..but the wittiest thing I have ever said.

In 2005, after John Prescott changed his role in a cabinet reshuffle, the BBC aired a documentary about the role of the Deputy Prime Minister and how only some Prime Ministers have had them and how they have had different roles.

During the documentary, they spoke about Willy Whitelaw, Margaret Thatcher's little puppet of a Deputy PM. Some officious person sitting in a big chair with their hands clasped noted that Thatcher famously said that..

"Every Prime Minister needs a Willy!"

Quick as a flash I said..."Well, not every Prime Minister needs a Johnny!"

Nobody was there to hear it :(
