This is different. This is national. We're all witnesses to The Incident. And I don't know about you, but I'm finding the tension unbearable. I can't wait for the general election - not because I want to see Prime Minister Wormface Cameron smugging his way into Downing Street, because I don't - but just because I don't think I can bear this mishap-strewn landscape a moment longer. It's like being trapped in a hot room filled with an overpowering fart smell, waiting for someone outside to come along and open the window.
I like Charlie Brooker because he worked with my boy Chris Morris on Brass Eye. i also have a fascination wif British politics, being able to ogle it as closely as i like but have no responsibility for the outcome or having to participate. Gordon Brown, he's somethin' - i do feel like he's working, but, not really sure 100% of the time what he's doing or why he's doing what he's doing. ...Still, would be my pleasure to meet you, Gordon B...

Excellent observations here. I'm one of those affected by Gordon (so easily distinguished from Golden) Brown, because I live in England. But I disagree with Charlie Brooker on David Cameron - who remains our only hope!
ReplyDeleteoh dear, "our only hope" - ended up the most disastrous bringer of unnecessary misfortune ( his 2 referendums) until the pandemic came along
