Replying to John Rice

Well, the messages coming out of Europe is that she's on another planet and ill prepared. That doesn't bode well for a true negotiation, more a scenario where they tell us what will happen and she won't be able to sell it at home. I guess next we'll be treated to massive demonisation of Europe, to cover for the fact we've been led into what was always going to be a disaster.

I saw Heseltine saying that. He's all you say, but didn't he look good in comparison with the scrappy pygmies now leading us to no-one knows where?

The demonisation of Europe has alredy begun and will get worse. And it's so bloody self-defeating, it really is.

And yes, if one thing has brought the enormity of the crisis in British politics home to me, it's been the vague twinge of nostalgia I get when I hear Heseltine or Ken Clarke speak on this issue. You really know the current lot are bad when they make those monsters of the past seem positively reasonable by comparison.
