OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF BABES AND GERMANS
Inevitably, perhaps, the best and most perceptive comment I've heard yet on the idiocy of the Leave vote came from a man with an outsider's sense of perspective.
Comedian Henning Wehn, on being ask what his views were on the UK's current political mess up, said he was all in favour of the UK leaving Europe, indeed looking forward to it. Because he'd heard that before we joined the Common Market this island was a bona fide paradise where people only needed to work for three days a week and the electricity bills were incredibly low. And that getting out of the EU would clearly bring those days back again....
I always love a good metaphor.
