And what's wrong this week?
I'll tell you what … apart from everything: the shock horror MP expenses swindle shock scandal is still running on and on and on with more totally unsurprising revelations being revealed every two and a half minutes. I say, who cares? I also say, could this be a smoke screen to cover some real news that the weepingly contrite government etc. doesn't want us to know about? And if so, what could it be? I also say, I hate rhetorical questions but don't you think they're just a little bit necessary? Sometimes?
Anyway, think on. What could be worse than repeatedly hearing what a bunch of scum our elected representatives really are? Um … tricky, I admit, because so much immediately springs to mind, but if we try to put ourselves in the mindset of Parliament … what have they really done?
I'll have to think about this because right now I've got to finish a bottle of wine before I go out drinking and actually, we don't need to worry too much about dying of tedium. I heard there's a plan afoot to put all the worst offending MPs on an island costing a mere £1600 and float them out to the middle of an ornamental lake full of piranhas and exploding myths where they will either starve or eat each other. Sounds good to me.
Be radical … defy gravitas. And buy a copy of my book, you lazy b*****s.
Love you.
Arlo Flinn,
