Metaphorically speaking, I think I may agree with you.

A new category to get worried about. Forget anyone who is Black or Romanian or Polish or Muslim. What do UKIP say about the Metaphorics?

[mick2me 3,033]

How many of them are there?

[Rob.L 1,091]

26,000,000 according to some.

-4,000 according to others.

The proof of the pudding is when you are in the supermarket (or on a forum) everyone around you is talking in metaphor.

Seems to me it don't matter which bunch you vote in it just keeps gerrin wos. Least it does here. They've all got their noses in the trough.

"The Budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed, lest Rome will become bankrupt. People must again learn to work instead of living on public assistance."................... Cicero , 55 BC

So, evidently we've learnt bugger all over the past 2,069 years.

Unfortunately, like nearly all of those statements attributable to great men, they have little relationship to the truth.

Thanks for pointing that fact out, Bilboro-lad and in my defence, I can only quote Plato - "There is no harm in repeating a good thing."

Particularly when the words are both applicable and somewhat pertinent in the current climate.
