Disingenuous Twerp

Today's headline could refer to a great many politicians - though not the egregious Trump; nothing disingenuous about that bastard.

 

No, today I am talking about that well-known wimpy weather-vane. Nick Clegg, erstwhile leader of the sinking Liberal Democratic Party here in England.

 

During Prime Minister's Questions today in the House of Commons, Clegg's performance was reported by the BBC as follows: 

 

He [Clegg] accused Theresa May, "prime minister of our country, with no mandate of her own", of having the gall to tell her Conservative Party conference that if "you believe we have a natural affinity with other countries", British internationalism, "you are a citizen of nowhere".

 

Typical bloody leftie tripe.  The socialists often like to try this one on as well.  What does this ineffectual buffoon mean by "mandate?"

 

Mr Clegg: (time you studied British Constitution isn't it?) here in Great Britain, we elect PARTIES not "presidents".  We have an excellent Head of State in the person of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. 

 

Try to keep up.

 

Until the next time

A Health Unto Her Majesty

[19/18]

I have taken the liberty of using Her Majesty's Royal Standard to head this posting; I trust that the occasion of the celebration of her Diamond Jubilee will be seen as justification for this solecism.

It is normal on such occasions to look back over the past sixty years; many have done so and like to point to progress etc., etc.

Typically the "progress" since 1952 is - at least in my view - mixed.  I doubt that people in general are any happier than they were then.  And it seems that our politicians and major public figures are no better - if as good - as they were then.  

Only the Queen continues above it all.

That appalling creepy liar Blair, destroyed the House of Lords, a wonderful institution with 800 years of tradition.  I hope that any interference with our constitutional monarchy occurs long after I am gone from this vale of tears!

Long live the Monarchy - and a health unto Her Majesty!

Until the next time.
