Subject: RE: BS: The Destruction of the Lib Dems
Eliza, it means you need rehabilitation. See you at the gulag.
Nick Clegg is just an example of most of our politicians these days: overgrown schoolboys who've gone from school (usually public) to university (usually Oxbridge) and then to Politics to play. No wisdom or experience of real life at all. It really sickens me when they start playing soldiers and talk about casualties, collateral damage etc; they have no military experience and behave like they are playing a computer game where you can press a key and restart. A generation ago we did have politicians who had some experience of real life, of real war and gained some wisdom on the way. Attlee, Supermac...no not Grimmond: he was just playing as he knew he would never be in power.
Or did they seem so much better because I was younger then.
