And so just like that we shall have a new PM, a new defender of the faith, a new El Presidente. I know that an unopposed coronation gives some people pause for thought but truth be told it isn’t the first time and is a natural occurence under the terms of our own little democracy. We vote on manifestos, not personalities, which is probably just as well as we are now under the control of a dour Scot.
For all those years we spent looking over the channel for invaders, it turns out that our national sovereignty was most at threat from our neighbours to the north. They skillyfully gain their own parliament and then leave one of their own behind to run our parliament too. I joke ofcourse.
So what sort of PM will El Gordo make? Frankly I don’t have a clue though I reckon we will have a good few years to find out as we still seem to be bereft of a viable opposition in this country. The one thing I do hope is that, as the architect of the abominable tax credit system, his new position of power wont delay getting the bloody thing scrapped once and for all.
