Yes - I think you might be getting a bit carried away!


Edited to add -

Andrew Adonis was in his pre-Damascene period when George Osborne was performing, if I remember correctly!

Yeah, there aren't *that* many people who should NEVER be trusted on ANYTHING - even quite a few Tories have areas which they are fairly "sound" on.

Osborne is definitely in the above category, however.

The point is, it wasn't - THAT'S WHY THE REFERENDUM RESULT HAPPENED.
Sure, but that's no more of an exaggeration than "revolt of the diposessed". Revolt of old English white men is more like it.

2018 shall be the time of the great awakening.

It shall be remembered for centuries as the time when the wise people of the Earth rose up as one and said...

"Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn."

Just because I'd like to see Donald Trump fight Cthulhu.
