Hey Allan! It is Eastertime over here in the utterly confused almost unconstitutional kingdom of the unrealOranges and we lost interest in that even more confused Irrepublic across the soiled pond. I told you before I still support and like your satire, but the subjects are so stupid, ridiculous, undemocratic, trumpid, deranged, corrupt, weird and, yes, guilty, that we are dumbstruck. And now our own MP has lost it, or, to be more precise, couldn't hide his lack of integrity any more. Formation of a new coalition seems to have become impossible. FYI, he lied five times in 10 years, not 21000 times in 4, but his most recent lie is irreparable. 16 out of 17 parties signed a vote of censure, 14 a vote of no confidence. He hasn't been sent away yet, but nobody believes in resurrection of the most popular politician of 2020. There is a cartoon showing a kid and his mother, sitting in the sun on a step of stairs. The kid asks: 'mummy, if I lie, will I go to hell?' His mom responds soothingly: 'well, no dear, not at all! You will become prime minister!' Sounds familiar?
