The end of politics

[摘要] A couple of years ago, I promised to let you into the secrets of the semi-colon; but I keep getting distracted. I think it is time to tell you, if you had not already worked it out, that our present Labour government is the biggest disappointment of my adult life. I say adult life, because my biggest disappointment as a child was that my parents would not buy me a policeman's uniform for my seventh birthday. They couldn't remember this at all. They claimed that I cried myself to sleep for days because they wouldn't buy me a bicycle, which I don't remember. It is true I have never owned a bike. Perhaps that is for the best: I last rode a bike aged about 11 and collided with a car in an otherwise empty cul-de-sac. Exhortations from hospital management for me to abandon my car and take to two wheels will forever fall on deaf ears.
