In all fairness, I don't think his real position has changed. 
That position is: "I'm happy doing what I do, why should I do
anything different?"

Which is a good question. Of course, those of us who believe

'I don't want to know about it; I don't choose to discuss it; 
I don't admit it!' Mr Podsnap had even acquired a peculiar 
flourish of his right arm in often clearing the world of its 
most difficult problems, by sweeping them behind him (and 
consequently sheer away) with those words and a flushed face.
