Warning Signs: The Union of Concerned Propagandists

we are not led by a Prime Minister who lives in the real world. Instead, we are led by one who lives in Notting Hill fairy land world, where all one’s mates and – more significantly, perhaps – one’s wife’s mates believe fervently and passionately in the mythical beast ManBearPig whose ravenings, they imagine, can only be satisfied by the destruction of the British countryside with wind farms, the desecration of church roofs with shiny, pointless solar panels and the massive sacrifice of huge piles of taxpayers’ money.
