SELF-INFLICTED WOUNDS

On the train to where?

There comes a moment, when you have had a long day, when it can become difficult to tell the difference between fiction and non-fiction or comedy drama and reality. That moment for me came on Friday night when I watched Newsnight on BBC 2. For the best part of twenty minutes I might as well have been watching an  episode of In The Thick of It, rather than actual news coverage of the Con Dems latest collection of self inflicted wounds e,g. George Osborne’s First class PR disaster,  Andrew ‘Thrasher’ Mitchell’s belated resignation (after 28 days of hoping the problem would go away) or David Cameron’s blundering intervention in relation to the ‘energy market’... perhaps  Malcolm Tucker can drop is and help get DC (and his clique) out of the mire...
