Alright, it was just too good an opportunity to miss. Unlike more than a few Poppies strikers over the years, we know an open goal when we see it.
Is a Kettering Town fan site an appropriate forum for political comment? Well it never stopped us in our firebrand younger days, when many an issue of the paper ancestor of this blog was sprinkled with opinions not shared by all of the readership. Certainly judging by the continuing re-election of Roger Freeman MP.
Possibly we misjudged our influence on the wider electorate. Much more likely we knew it was zero but still enjoyed sounding off on the only platform readily available.
These days of course we are much less likely to inflict our views on you, no matter how exercised we get about parking access to the local garden centre. But something that still has the capacity to boil our p*ss is the spectacle of a former comedy news quiz clown who is a byword for dishonesty trying to blag his way out of Downing St revelry while the rest of us were dutifully following the rules no matter how personally inconvenient or painful.
If you’ve ever seen the film Downfall, remember the party scene towards the end. Boris was there, but only for 25 minutes.
It's my party and I'll lie if I want to
