Somehow doesn't have the same comedic ring, though.  So the version I
posted is what was on the tv show.  (Or rather in Yes, Prime Minister.)
The Minister becomes Prime Minister for the last 2 seasons.

In the television show it is just called 'Politician's Logic'.  Not
sure who started calling it the Politicians Syllogism.
