Another mixed metaphor, this time from the slightly oleaginous Sir Martin Sorrell, chairman of the vast advertising and market research group, WPP:
"It's been a very gruelling year and next year is going to be more of
the same. You're in the trenches and it's hand-to-hand combat.
Corporates are not happy bunnies at the moment."
Hmm, unhappy bunnies in the trenches...
This one comes from a BBC report about Sorrell's views on tax.
Calvin Coolidge, 30th President of the United States, was once asked about sin; after a period of reflection he remarked that he was "agin it." I suspect that Sorrell's views on tax are similar to the late president's.
Until the next time.
