The April Fool Was That The Martians Had Not Landed

EMBRYO POLITICIANS: HOW TO SPOT THEM

I am sorry that the April fool post was so obvious. The behaviour of our parliamentarians (as they grandly style themselves) is so obviously non-human that, of course, the Martians have landed. I am using "Martians" as shorthand. I do not swear that they are from Mars. They are just not from this planet. They are either extraterrestrials of some kind or they may merely be escapees from an institution near you. Care in the community is going too far in my opinion but, at least, most of the worst cases have regularly to visit a single centre that we allow them to call the Palace of Westminster. That is why the row over their expenses is misplaced. Without access to that particular trough we might lose track of them.

You may note that this post does not carry any reference to humour in the labels below.
