Half Empty


So much noise, so much chatter, so much twaddle...Unlike the bearded one above I don't blame Fry, I blame Di and all that 'People's Princess' claptrap. Since the sainted one snuffed it in Paris a rash of roadside tributes have materialised in the wake of any untimely death, politicians have taken to calling themselves Tony, Dave or Nick and every Tom, Dick or Mary with a keyboard has the power to force our so-called leaders into humiliating apologies and cringe-making personal statements. In the absence of anything resembling a coherent political debate we have an avalanche of opinion, a mess of mea culpas and for the next five minutes or so, the phenomenon known as 'Cleggmania'.
