Honestly the things I have to do. I had the misfortune to be having to talk to a teenager the other day. Now I thought I was opinionated, bigoted and rigid but hey folks! Compared to the younger generation I'm practically a liberal free-thinker. Apparently if you're a teenager anything that is not in your (limited) range of experience is suspect and therefore weird. Goths are weird because they dress up, Emos are weird because they self-harm (I might reluctantly have to agree to this to some extent), boys are weird because they're male, girls are weird because....and the list goes on. And the less you know about a subject the more definite your opinion, why is this reminding me of something - oh yes - what other group in society have very definite opinions about things they know nothing about? Politicians of course.
So to recap Politicians are stuck at the fifth of Erickson's stages of psychosocial development. Calling Herr Doktor von Squeakenstein to the consulting room, there's six hundred odd customers for you in Westminster.
