Horrible thought



I've had this horiible thought before and maybe you have too, but as these two are the guys who lead our main political parties then why do so many of us think the EU is bound to be worse?

Just look at them. 

The cream of British political life, the pinnacle of our democracy, the two statesmen we should look to for wisdom, guidance and at least a smidgen of genuine patriotism. Yet one could almost believe they were selected to drive us into the arms of the faceless bureaucrats.

I'm resolutely opposed to the EU, but sometimes it's hard road.

They are the faceless bureaucrats. It's just that the system of politics we favour in the UK encourages them to grow something resembling a face.

Hitchens is forecasting Boris as PM and Trump as POTUS.

If we leave, they'll be booted.

Sam - you are right, implying that the EU referendum may make no long term difference whichever way it goes.

Sackers - interesting times indeed.

James - but replacements may be little better.

This morning I got up looking forward to a lovely gale and tales of disaster across the nation and found myself looking at the dirty duo. Fetch me the brandy, Harris.

Demetrius - only the one brandy sir? It is Friday.
