June 8th sees another UK election.
After listening to the candidates on the hustings I have at last found one I can wholeheartedly support.
Taylor Swift is just one of many who have demonstrated their support for him.
And he's promised that if he makes a mess he'll clean it up himself...
Politics has come to such a state that people who could be statemen instead of politicians don't want any part of it, at least that's how it seems to me.
ReplyDeleteConsidering that there are other cartoon-like figures such as Trump in positions of heads of state, why not Paddington, indeed!
ReplyDeletethe recent world wide elections (and the UK one is no different) always remind me of the Douglas Adam's quote from the Restaurant at the End of the Universe:
ReplyDeleteThe major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.
To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who most want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.
To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job
Wish I could vote in your election. I'd vote for him.
ReplyDeleteI had forgotten the quote from The Restaurant at the End of the Universe. One of my favourite reads and so full of 'truths' (mostly uncomfortable).
