Being Prime Minister isn’t what you had fantasised about at school, is it Boris? You cannot stand, like a commanding general in front of the braying Yahoos on the Government benches, using your superior, Etonian wit and guile to shoot down the foolish comments of the uneducated plebs on the Opposition benches. All that is finished. The virus has put paid to the crampt, claustrophobic geometry of the House of Commons. And the new Leader of the Opposition is clearly smarter, and better educated than you.
But as a classicist, Boris, you should know that the gods never give man everything he arrogantly demands of them – they must be entertained by man. You may be at the top of Disraeli’s greasy pole, but it is not such a pleasant place… if there is no empire to govern, no colonial wars to fight and win, and no gun-boats to send to overawe the restless natives. And the EU does hold all the cards, and your faux-patriotic speeches will return to haunt you, as the virus and Brexit destroy the nation.
Enjoy your grief spell of power, Boris. Tomorrow you will be gone and forgotten. Another in the long-line of failed politicians.
‘Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.’

I like this web site its a master peace ! Glad I noticed this on google .
Very interesting points you have remarked, thanks for posting. “The unspoken word never does harm.” by Kossuth.
Awesome website you have here but I was wondering if you knew of any message boards that cover the same topics talked about in this article? I’d really like to be a part of group where I can get suggestions from other knowledgeable people that share the same interest. If you have any recommendations, please let me know. Thank you!
The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.
Would love to incessantly get updated great website! .
Today, I went to the beach front with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
Thank you for the sensible critique. Me and my neighbor were just preparing to do some research on this. We got a grab a book from our area library but I think I learned more clear from this post. I’m very glad to see such wonderful information being shared freely out there.
