Would you wield the knife yourself?
The clown who the person I quoted was referring to had paid the Russians a huge sum of money to take him on a trip into space and return him safely to earth a few weeks later.
So there was no suggestion of murdering anyone. The joke was firstly to infer that the PM is a clown, and secondly that the speaker would welcome the idea of sending him as far away as possible.
