In fact we're streets ahead of most countries when it comes to justice and the rule of law and the ability to feed and clothe ourselves. So stop this mock-outrage at our awfulness.
ReplyDeleteBack to your altar to Old Etonians, dearie. Don't forget to snuff out the candles on your way out.
ReplyDeleteLess inverted snobbery please
ReplyDeleteOnly if you promise to stop tugging your forelock.
