My debt to the Guido Fawkes site grows and grows. Today, my special thanks go to 'Rich', his in-house cartoonist for this absolute corker:
This morning I had the misfortune to switch on my radio and catch an interview with some stuttering, waffling, old prat called Sir Jonathan Day who was, God help us, once head of the Joint Services Intelligence Committee. Originally he trained as a solicitor but then jumped aboard the Civil Service gravy train where, obviously, he greased his way onwards and upwards. In his interview he attempted to parrot what Dim Dave' is going to say later this morning which is that without Europe "We're doomed, I tell you, doomed!" What a pathetic bunch of spineless wankers they all are!
Unless my history teachers told porkies every time Britain went to war in Europe it eventually won.
What's the problem?

Well, apart from that unfortunate accident in 1066 but shooting arrows into the eyes of Dear Leader was a typical Froggie trick!

"spineless wankers"
Presumably the lack of a spine gives them another option.

The JSIC is a committee run by the Civil Service. I sat on one of its sub-committees twice. My experience was that the civil servants knew very little about the things they were pontificating about.

could lead to war? what with? Europe is being invaded now. There's the war.

Look here Whitewall; we (EU) are ready for a war now. British troops, Belgian officers and German General Staff. What a combination!
