Ever the pessimistic optimist, I tuned into Sky3 for the Lion Man and got the debate instead. After half an hour I gave up as, like last time, they spoke a load of political gobblegook that neither answered the questions put, nor explained what they would do if elected to office. The whole charade is nothing but a scam intended to engage the electorate in the petty squabbles of the contenders, but has so far failed on every count.

I believe it was Sergeant Wilson in Dad's Army who uttered the prophetic words (though I stand to be corrected): "We're doomed, Captain Mainwearing. We're doomed
