Thank You, 'Young People Nowadays'.

A Tory MP this morning talked of groups of young people at the polling station in his constituency. Groups, that is: not gangs.
We have a fantastic, wise and caring younger generation that we disrespect at our peril; we hear so much negative rubbish about them that simply does not represent their intelligence and wisdom.
I hope they build on their power and build on their dreams of a fairer future.

  1. We had a very happy day at work today. Some of my colleagues are 'Young people' incidentally, and they voted.

  2. You should also listen to tonight's News Quiz: If only for the sheer delight of Mark Steel sounding like a five year old on Christmas morning, i.e., so excited can barely speak

  4. Oh, I do like Stewart Lee...

    There was a good moment on the World Service on Saturday, talking about Lord Buckethead: "There was a Lord Buckethead who used to stand against Margaret Thatcher, but we can't be sure if it's the same Lord Buckethead. Because of the bucket on his head"
