A DOUBLE CELEBRATION FOR SOME THIS WEEK
Today the present prime minister has celebrated lasting two years. Cheers, Gordon.
And in Scotland on July 1st they will have had ten years of devolution. Also linked at Blair Foundation Watch (yes, Blair was the British PM who “founded” devolution.)
So it’s all YOUR fault, Mr Blair, of course. As always.
Just think – if you had managed to withstand the torrent of knives in your back in September 2006 we might never have had Gordon.
And Scottish devolution! If you had resisted THAT we might never have had this.
Why do you always insist on giving the people what they think they want?
It’s so unpolitical these days. So undemocratic – some might say.
By the way, it is interesting how little thanks is given to the Labour government for devolution at the BBC website. Still, David Cameron now admits his party was wrong to be against it. Election in the air?
By the way, THANK YOU, Mr Blair. For one of the above, anyway.
Sort of.
(Blair, June 27th Parliament – “And that is that. The End.”)
And so The Word was spake. And so it was.
