Definitely Dead!

.
There are only two stories dominating the news this morning.

The first is Gordon Brown’s long-awaited announcement that this rotten parliament is finally to be terminated and that a General Election will be held on 6 May.

The second is the tale of the two German women who tried to smuggle a dead man sitting in a wheelchair and wearing sunglasses onto an easyJet flight from Liverpool to Berlin, presumably in an attempt to avoid the high cost of repatriating his body.

Insofar as the General Election is concerned, for the next month we will have wall-to-wall coverage of it along with the usual roll-out of pundits, experts and general know-alls. By the time we come to actually vote, we will all be thoroughly sick of the whole business.

Concerning the two ladies who took a corpse in a taxi to Liverpool Airport, it struck me that this was very much like Gordon Brown’s actions over the last few months.

His government was most definitely dead and had been for some time!
