I must comment on the state of politics, and politicians, who (not all) have more faces than the town clock. David Cameron gambled on Brexit, and lost. Boris Johnson got the Judas kiss from Michael Gove, who got the same kiss from the new Prime Minister and is currently on the Buroo. Nigel Farage stuck it to the EU (I watched, it was brilliant) then he resigned as leader of UKIP, saying Britain won't be the last country to leave the EU. The leader of the EU, Jean-Claude Juncker spat the dummy! They wanted a super state, with the USA as puppet master. Rome, Napoleon, Hitler and the Soviet Union all wanted the same. How did that turn out? Jeremy Corbyn is suffering the same fate as Julius Caesar. It's taking a bit longer, as there are 172 of them stabbing him in the back led by a bird of prey, Angela Eagle. I would tell them all to stuff it! Two Thatcher clones were in the race for leadership of the Tory party, and PM. Theresa May is now PM, unelected. If she is a true Thatcher clone, be very afraid. However, we have our country back, stop greeting! Up here, the witch of the north, Ms Sturgeon, is bumping her gums on another referendum. Thatcher's cry was 'the lady is not for turning'. Sturgeon's is 'the lady is no for listening'. I smell the other puppet master, Salmond. In Germany, Ms Merkel, looking like a worn out Pearl from Emmerdale, clearly misread the migrant situation and is now under threat from the new Nazi party, the far right. The USA may have a woman president. Well, they tried a black one. He failed on three counts: to change the gun laws; to stop the police from physically abusing and shotting black people; and on Syria. Now the black people are shooting back! Finally, the third recipient of the Judas kiss, Teflon Tony Blair! John 'Two Jags' Prescott, deputy PM at the time, has suddenly decided the Iraq war was illegal! Did he fall asleep again at the time? The only weapons of mass destruction were Bush and Blair. meanwhile, women are running the show. Come on guys, grow a pair. the women have!
