“Poli” Latin meaning many. “Tics” meaning blood sucking vermin.

William Gladstone and Benjamin Disraeli were both prime ministers of England and bitter political opponents. Their dislike for each other is legendary.
Once at a social gathering Gladstone said to Disraeli “Sir, I predict you will die either by hanging or of some vile disease.” Disraeli responded, “That depends, Sir, on weather I embrace your principles or your mistress.”
