Calm Down Dear – Its Only Politics


Typical politicians.

They latch onto the slightest thing and turn it into a mountainous issue. And all to score points on each other.

The latest is the Prime Ministers “Calm Down Dear” statement. When taken in the context of the cut and thrust of parliamentary question time it is insignificant. A bit of humour amidst the tawdry and the banal.

But they wouldn’t be politicians if they didn’t take that golden opportunity and seize it with both hands.So off they go, take a minor comment and build it up. Ask for an apology where one is not necessary. Accuse the Prime Minister of “sexism” where none was intended

Whats worse is that the media also latch on and build this simple comment into a news story when it isn’t

Who cares ? Certainly the other politicians shouldn’t. They are supposed to be debating the UKs economical and political woes. After all that’s what we pay them for.
