THE blunders made by the Liberal Democrats in York seem never ending.
Maybe someone will make a film of them all one day. I can just imagine the opening scene:
A bright-eyed youth stumbles into a Liberal Democrat meeting claiming that he has something to change the fortunes of the mixed-up party. He hands a jam jar to the leader. "It's a brain, sir," the lad mutters. "Good God," exclaims the leader peering into the jam jar.
The Lib Dems gather round excitedly thinking all their troubles are over, but the lady with the pointed nose and sharp glasses questions how the brain can fit into a jam jar. "Well," the boy explains, "it's only the brain of a squirrel, but..." The leader takes the boy aside, explaining there is no shortage of those round here.
"What we need son, is a brain that can think of a solution in the same year that the problem arises.
"Off you go son, and don't forget to recycle the jar in the appropriate container."
