I’ve been away for a few days. In my absence, nearly-12 year old son has discovered Father Ted. He made us tea tonight and will only speak in Mrs Doyle’s voice. This is the reason I had children.

If you’re thinking about holding your nose and voting for this party, please consider this evidence of the rotten seam of contempt that runs right through their heart.
