They tried Adolf Hitler over here once. He had a street named after him in every town and village in the land just like some countries I'll not name even do today. That's when you need to start worrying, Dave.
Adolf Hitler use to go to his uncles in Liverpool for his holidays Gwil. Jeremy Corbyn for me. Or Caroline Lucas or Jo from the Liberal Democrats. Jeremy has an allotment. Anybody who cares for the land will care for their country.
I think you mean his nephew Patrick Hitler. He may have had Liverpool connections. Later he settled in America I believe. Patrick used to come over periodically to scrounge money from his rich Uncle Adolph, author of Germany's best selling book amongst his claims to fame. Did you know that the uncle's two volume tome was never put on the Vatican's banned books list? My grandad would've made a good prime minister. He had 5 allotments!
5 allotments is very impressive. I once had two. Harold Wilson talked about having a Minister of allotments. Good idea. I knew there was a Liverpool Hitler connection.
Tony was one of my heroes. He didn't like the EU though. Churchill was a keen gardener and believed in the United States of Europe for peace and prosperity. So he would be a Remained today.
You could be right. We have an unelected administration running Austria at the moment. They seem to be making a better job of it than the politicians who were there before.
Laurel: I'll be the minister of allotments. Hardy: No! I'll make them the biggest, the best allotments there ever have been. I know everything about allotments. With apologies, my friends.
"Another fine mess you got me in Donald!"
ReplyDeleteIt's real live entertainment!
DeleteMy hair's blonder than yours.
ReplyDeleteHow do you know? I've got my hat on, Boris.
ReplyDeleteStan was English like Boris. Which one would you choose to govern you?

But in answer to your question I'd have to take Boris on his word - money for NHS, Schools, Safer Streets etc..
DeleteAnybody but Corbyn.

ReplyDeleteA minister of allotments sounds Pythonesque. But in reality might come about one day. We can read the tea leaves but we can't see the future.
DeleteIt does sound like the ministry of silly walks. But it would be good for allotments and community gardens to have their own minister.
ReplyDeleteTony Benn. He even had a tramp living in his garden shed. An allotment minister would need to smoke a pipe and posses a couple of deck chairs,

DeleteRemainer even!
DeleteBoth were men one could respect. A rare breed of politician.
DeleteJohn Major is another politician who I have a lot of time for. I think party colours are not so important any more.

DeleteI think I preferred John Major to his Spittin' Image puppet. Just.

Jimmy Carter knows his nuts. He could do it for the US.
