I Spent The 1960s And 1970s Seeking

I Liked It When We Had Ugly Politicians Who Droned On About Issues.

Every Budget I Have Ever Prepared Has Been Balanced.

One Thing That Chairman Mao Did Was To End The Appalling Foot Binding Of Women. That Alone Justifies The Mao Tse-tung Era.

The Tories Had The Legal Right To Demand Extra Meetings Of The Council But I Could Decide When They Would Be Held And Always Called Them For Friday Afternoons, Knowing That Three Or Four Of The Richer Tories Went To The Country Early And Were Not Prepared To Stay In The City Beyond Lunchtime. I Realised That Nothing In Politics Is New When I Read In Suetonius's The Twelve Caesars That Julius Caesar Pulled The Same Trick When Reactionaries In The Senate Were Making His Life Difficult.

I Fear That Within 10 Years Gays, Trade Union Activists And Left Wing Politicians Will Be Led Off To The Gas Chambers.
