Two election reports that caught my eye: 1) A Labour candidate in Wales said that flying the English flag was for ‘simpletons or casual racists’. He also suggested vandalising cars showing the St George’s flag in Wales.
2) A candidate for Ukip who laid on sausage rolls at an event in Hampshire is to be investigated by the police because voting intentions may be swayed by his kindly, baked pastry offerings.
What utter madness. Any form of reason has gone, replaced, it seems, by staggering stupidity. Because of their left-ish bias I never expected to see these two reports on television and I didn’t. Cheers to our free press, worth every penny.
