Yesterday’s solstice made an estimated 20,000 people happy when they prayed, danced and generally whooped it up around Stonehenge. The rest of the population merely noted that yesterday was the longest day and that the nights are now inexorably drawing in.
Along with shorter days, what else is there to look forward to this year? George Osborne’s Emergency Budget this afternoon is most likely to be a starter. Judging from what has been leaked so far, a further tightening of personal and national pursestrings and, quite possibly, a summer and autumn of discontent to look forward to.
No dancing and whooping it up for us then but, possibly, quite a bit of praying!
