Panto-politics
Took some wee ones to the pantomime (Brian Blessed-cotton-socks in Peter Pan), and came up wi’ a new plan for democracy. (Oh, yes I did!). Get those politicians to stand on a stage and tell us what they want to do. The populous then shout back: “Oh yes, get on wi’ it!” or “Oh no, you don’t, you mad, bad etc…!” (Excluding our own hero MPs, why do I expect this to be the popular vote?).
Post panto, I’ve also refined ma’ long-held idea for an independent auditor to assess weekly/monthly/annually/hourly (take your pick) the performance of each MP. I reckon poor results get “The crocodile’s behind you!” which means they’re taken immediately to the Tower. Oh, and there’s no tea or pension for them.
I do hear Dekaydence has its own plans for MPs. Much tougher and greener than mine. See Green Fire out in 2009.

Last time I took my small grandson to see Brian Blessed in Peter pan, he screamed every time he saw him. Or was that the crocodile?
