he no longer cares it is no longer his problem (dead cat bounce)

urghh! horsemouth is grumpy. (he has missed a meeting).

but soon he won't need to go to those meetings (so it probably won't matter). 

horsemouth was phrasing all the arguments to appear as reasonable as possible (and then he realised he no longer needs to do this).

he no longer cares it is no longer his problem. 

except that that is not quite true. it does bother him. 

---------------------------------------------

the racists have been out being racist again. this time in epping. for their hooligans it is always a good time to fight the cops. it's a bad look but the hooligans don't care. the just like a ruck.

this doesn't necessarily stop the respectably racist (sorry anti-immigration) wing of the movement from politically profiting from it. 

it is interesting that there has been no dead cat bounce for the tories. they are still dead. they are still in free-fall. they are still being convicted in the court of public opinion for their lies and failures (and super-injunctions) when last in office. (was it only a year ago?)

it is the prisoner's dilemma. they are still being punished. there is no forgiveness yet. 

and the great angry masses look like routing around them to reform. 

of course farage (like trump) can't really fix anything. his is not a party of government - it is not even a party really. it is farage. it is a protest vote.

reform are perpetually talked-up like they can win (as if they aren't more likely to split the vote of the two major parties leading to 'no-overall control'). who wins when there is no overall control? er, the DUP usually...

even if they were 'in power' they would face would be the combined might of the british 'deep state' (which runs a lot deeper and darker than its US equivalent).

oh dear! ozzy has just popped his clogs. horsemouth chooses war pigs from the december 20th 1970 paris gig. that's a great, tight, hungry band and ozzy is in fine voice. a friend picked crazy train (a very upful song about battling mental health issues thinks horsemouth). another planet caravan. 

---------------------------------

as usual when he travels he gets itchy feet and wants to be away as soon as possible. however he can't until the morning. 

as a result of this he has been pacing like a caged lion.  

wednesday horsemouth will be up early to be away early. and then he will travel. how it will all work out he cannot yet foresee. 

well he's up. and he's planning to be away (but first coffee and a round of toast).
