The grown up party

Mark Reckless being described as a fellow who is large of derrière and having a fondness for certain electrical appliances by two men who think we should look to them as the future of this country confirmed just what I’ve suspected for a while now.

Whilst watching the news at home or when my other half has switched on to Prime ministers questions I’m often heard to remark that the resulting jibber jabber as each party tries to get one up on the other  sounds like nothing more than kids squabbling in the playground .

And Dave and Boris have just proved my analysis to a tee.

So in a week that’s seen its fair dose of “my leaders better than your leader “, “you’re not my best friends anymore “and general sticks and stones will break my bones name calling I’m wondering whether we might be better off if someone were to start a new political party consisting of adults who know how to behave like proper grown ups.
