Patience Is A Virtue
After 12 long years, there’s finally good news out of the UK.
Great news, in fact.
Labour, having run the UK so fantastically since 1997 that the national debt is now 150% of GDP, has come in third in the latest opinion poll, falling behind the Liberal Democrats.
If that news doesn’t quite match the preceding hype, then consider this:
David Lloyd George was the last Liberal Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, from 1916-22. Since then, the Lib-Dems have been about as relevant to British politics as human rights are to the Middle East.
It’s impossible to even know with much accuracy where the Lib-Dems stand on any issue. As they’ve had zero chance of winning elections during the past 90 years, no-one pays any attention to what they say, allowing them to take every position on every question (not that they’re the only ones to do that…).
So socialists have once again made themselves redundant. All that it took, unfortunately, was running a once-great country into the ground.
History will soon repeat itself.

It looks as though your boy Gordon has said something requiring a check of the nasal length in that photo.
