Yes, UK Parliament, we're looking at you. What a gang of poltroons, of self-serving, despotic, subpar, traitorous, margarine demon Blairite mountebanks. There are exceptions, like Mr. Lowe, but they're rare. Has the time come for what's left of the UK's Army to go full Cromwell? Surely a Battalion of Guards or better yet, Gurkhas, would be more than sufficient.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a full-on Charles I monarchist, obviously, and no fan of Cromwell and his military tyranny of Major Generals. But something radical has to be done, clearly, and that's just in the UK. Surely Congress and Senate have no need whatsoever of a purge.

PS. Read Belloc's Cromwell and Charles I, two outstanding biographies from everyone's favorite belligerent.
Crusty Old TV Tech here. "You are no more capable of running the affairs of this nation than those of a brothel!" Category error old bean, Parliament (and Congress) ARE a brothel! Ah, Richard Harris, leave it to an Irishman to bring the ultimate Puritan roundhead to life on the stage!
ReplyDeleteTech, what can I say? Warts and all.
ReplyDeleteGiven the situation, they really hate President Trump for calling them out.
ReplyDeleteExactly, LL, they're shrieking, crying, throwing up in their mouths, breaking out in hives and all of that.
